Here’s a bombshell that’s bound to shake up the political landscape: A Plus, the outspoken MP for Gomoa Central, has flatly denied claims that Kennedy Agyapong funded his 2024 parliamentary campaign—and he’s flipping the script entirely. In a candid interview on UTV’s United Showbiz on October 4, 2025, Kwame Asare Obeng (A Plus) set the record straight, emphasizing that not only did Agyapong not sponsor his campaign, but it was actually A Plus himself who supported Agyapong’s political endeavors that year.
“Let me be clear: Kennedy Agyapong is my friend, my brother, but he didn’t sponsor my campaign,” A Plus stated firmly. “In fact, it was the other way around. I mobilized funds to support his primaries. If he’s listening, he knows exactly what I’m talking about.” And this is the part most people miss: A Plus, who ran as an independent candidate, didn’t just deny the rumors—he turned the narrative on its head by revealing his own role in backing Agyapong’s campaign.
But here’s where it gets controversial: In a political climate where financial backing often raises eyebrows, A Plus’s victory as an independent candidate raises questions about the true dynamics of political support in Ghana. Despite the rumors, he secured a landslide win in the December 7 parliamentary election, clinching 14,277 votes out of 36,026 valid votes. He decisively defeated Naana Eyiah Quansah of the NPP (11,637 votes) and Yawson Mohamed of the NDC (10,112 votes), proving that independence can be a powerful political strategy.
Now, here’s the question that’s bound to spark debate: Does A Plus’s revelation challenge the assumption that political success relies on party heavyweights or external funding? Or does it simply highlight the complexity of alliances in Ghanaian politics? Let’s hear your thoughts in the comments—do you think A Plus’s independence was a game-changer, or is there more to this story than meets the eye? Watch the full interview below for more insights.
