Leave Bryan Acheampong alone; he said nothing new – Annoh-Dompreh to critics

The Member of Parliament (MP) for Nsawam Adoagyiri, Frank Annoh-Dompreh has jumped to the defense of his colleague Bryan Acheampong amid backlash from the Ghanaian public.

The MP for Abetifi suffered a lot of criticism over the weekend after he made a statement that has been described as senseless and inciting by many.

Speaking to followers of the NPP on Saturday, April 8, at the end of a health walk through the principal streets of Mpraeso, the new Minister for Food and Agriculture warned that if the NDC tries to do anything "foolish" in the next general election, the NPP will show them they have the men to face them.

“We will show NDC that we have the men if they want to do intimidate, harass us or do anything foolish during the 2024 elections.

“It will not happen that we will hand over power to NDC. We'll use any means for NPP to stay in power,” Bryan Acheampong said.

In the midst of criticism directed at the Minister of Food and Agriculture, Majority Chief Whip Bryan Acheampong has defended his NPP colleague, insisting that what he said is nothing new.

He accuses the NDC of hypocrisy in their attacks on Bryan Acheampong.

“Leave Bryn alone. He said nothing new... The entire Party & the parliamentary Caucus is fully associated with him.. The hypocrisy of our colleagues is just nauseating often times...,” Frank Annoh-Dompreh argued.
