A Dubai-based Ghanaian businessman, Kennedy Agyapong has taken to his heels and is nowhere to be found after being declared wanted by the Dubai Police.
Mr. Agyapong, Kasapafonline.com understands, has defrauded a Maid Services Agency in Dubai and is being wanted by the security agency to refund the money.
According to the 2016 Auditor-General’s report, Kennedy Agyapong, a brother of two stranded Ghanaian ladies brought the ladies to be sold as maids after recruiting them from Ghana to the United Arab Emirates to serve as house maids.
When his nefarious activities were discovered by the Dubai Police, Mr. Agyapong took to his heels, leaving the burden on the Ghanaian mission in Dubai to refund the money to the Maid Services Agency.
Briefing the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) over the issue, Director of Finance at the Foreign Affairs Minister, Bismarck Amoako, said the activities of Kennedy Agyapong were brought to the attention of the mission and demanded a refund to the maid service agency.
The mission, he noted, had to make payments to the tune of AED 2,075.00 on behalf of the two stranded Ghanaians.
However, when Mr. Kennedy Agyapong was contacted, he refunded only AED1,000 on April 1, 2016, leaving a balance of AED1,075 which is still outstanding.
Mr. Agyapong, according to the Director of Finance, cannot be traced for the remaining amount.
“The man cannot be traced in Dubai, unfortunately. But the general thing is that we do have these incidents every now and then where the missions are called upon to discharge its duties since they are Ghanaian citizens but in this case if you look at the outstanding balance, it is US$ 292. We’ve searched the whole of Dubai and can’t find him to come and refund that amount”, he noted.

Infact we hv a problem as a nation, what kind of childish headline is this. Oh nooo some people are so cheap!
AM DISAPPOINTED
You see how sensational and senseless some journalists can be. This story according to this website was sourced from kasapaonline. Despite group of companies, you have a reputation to protect so you must do due diligent before culling from other sources. Some media houselets have no reputation and so anything goes on their websites. Whilst there may be several kennedy Agyapongs admittedly, the reporting headline was put in a way to immediately put the binaculars on the MP. Could'nt the headline had been - GHANAIAN DECLARED WANTED BY DUBAI POLICE?
only peacefm and metro tv will published these kind of news to deceive the ple. if u dont read like the ndc ple and only follow headlines from peacefm and metro tv then u are finished. they will continue to mislead u just like some ple are misleading our president. as for me i know the motive behind the publication of this news. this is coming from anas' camp. hahahahaha.
Sensel&ss journalism peacefm, you cull such stories to disgrace prominent personalities. If people read only the headlines and conclude it to mean just the person you're trying to ridicule what do you gain from it? You illiterates were angered and crying when a certain pastor lied about your boss kwame despite drawing blood from the public to do money and wealth rituals and you think it's right to propagate such wick lies against others? God is watching us all.
nsante mpeatu seems helpless in the face of petty challenges facing him let alone big ones. kandahar boys have arisen again to take advantage of police unwillingness to prosecute them. it doesn't help matters that most of them have been trained by South African mercenaries brought into the country by akuffo addo to help him win elections with brute force. now they've been unleashed to torment ghanaians.
Cheap and sensational headline
is this a news peanut for ken .ghanaian common senseoooo
