“Let’s Meet In Court” – Kennedy Agyapong Dares Manasseh Azure Amid More Insults

MP for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong has vowed to meet renowned Investigative Journalist, Manasseh Azure Awuni in court following a defamatory suit brought against him by the journalist.

Earlier this week, Manasseh in a social media post announced that he has told his lawyers to sue Kennedy Agyapong for some comments made against him which he deems defamatory.

Manasseh said that the MP has embarked on a campaign to destroy his image.

“My attention has been drawn to a sustained smear campaign of outright lies by Assin Central MP, Kennedy Agyapong, against my person. This started when I published the “Contracts for Sale” documentary that implicated and resulted in the removal from office of the CEO of the Public Procurement Authority, Adjenim Boateng Adjei”.

“However, it is unacceptable to continue to lie blatantly when he knows that there’s no truth in his malicious and defamatory claims that I sought a bribe in the investigative report. My lawyers advised that I ignore him when he started the false publications. But it is obvious he has not and will not stop unless compelled by a court,” parts of the statement read.

However, reacting on his privately-owned Net2 TV, the maverick politician hurled more insults at the journalist, vowing to meet him in court.
