Controversial Assin Central Member of Parliament, Kennedy Agyapong has claimed the late Vice President Paa Kwesi Amissah Arthur was killed in a ‘Russian style’ by his own party members.
The death of the late Vice President came as a shock with reports saying he died at the 37 Military Hospital after collapsing in a gym.
Narrating the build up to his death, the wife, Matilda Amissah-Arthur said “he drove that morning; we went to the gym as usual. We get there 4:30 and we leave at 6. He did his exercises, we were almost through, he went on the cross trainer being the last exercise that he would do and then he collapsed. There was a doctor, a member of the gym who is a doctor, Dr Naa Tagoe of Ridge Hospital, so she rushed and resuscitated him.”
“The Doctor and the officer said if we put him at the back of the Benz it’s so short that it will cramp him, so I (the military officer) have a pickup, a double cabin pickup. Let’s put him on the second seat of the double cabin and let the doctor sit with him.”
Despite the narration by his wife, Kennedy Agyapong has alleged there was more to the death of the Vice President than meets the eye.
Speaking on his Net2 TV’s the seat show he stated that Amissah Arthur was eliminated because he had plans of contesting John Dramani Mahama.
“They are desperate for power and if we joke they will do a lot of bad things. October and November they are going to create a insecurity in this country.
“When Amissah-Arthur opened an office in East Legon to contest Mahama, he was very fit. How did he die? He was just training and he fell. They did it to him like Russian style. That is why I was warning Tracey Boakye,” he said.
