The party's Bono Regional Chairman has been critical of the former Assin Central constituency MP since they clashed during former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s national thank-you tour on Monday, April 28, 2025.
Abronye's allegations against Kennedy Agyapong
In a recent episode of his television programme aired on Ohia TV, Abronye accused Kennedy Agyapong of orchestrating a social media campaign to thwart his expected rival, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia's quest to become the NPP flagbearer.
The NPP Bono Regional Chairman, a staunch supporter of Bawumia, alleged that Kennedy Agyapong had funded multiple online platforms specifically designed to verbally attack and discredit the former Vice President.
Abronye alleged that the former Assin Central MP financed the negative coverage of his political rival while simultaneously positioning himself as a defender against such attacks.
He also alleged that Kennedy Agyapong was being sponsored by the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) government to sabotage the NPP's attempts to reclaim power in the 2028 general elections during an interview on Wontumi TV.
