The Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin Central, Kennedy Ohene Agyepong, may not after all be wrong when he said the Ashanti regional chairman of the New Patriotic Party, Mr. Bernard Antwi Bosiako is his political carbon copy, as he is also billed to be hit with a defamation suit. Reports reaching The aL-hAJJ suggest that the mining tycoon and brother of Ghana�s President, Ibrahim Mahama, after gathering all the libelous allegations leveled against him by the garrulous MP, has instructed his lawyers to prepare to haul the foul-mouth NPP MP to court. The main allegation is the claim by the vituperative NPP MP that, the President�s brother has strong ties with busted cocaine goddess, Nayele Ametefe. While the overlord of the Ashanti region is reported to have interceded on behalf of the NPP regional chairman, Bernard Antwi Bosiako aka Wontumi and begged Ibrahim Mahama for an out of court settlement in the GHC GH�5,000,000 defamation suit, Ken Agyapong is almost certain to find his name on the list of NPP kingpins to face the legal wrath of the president�s soft-spoken but-no-nonsense brother. Sources close to the Chief Executive Officer of Engineers and Planners have told The aL-hAJJ that the ultimatum he gave Ken Agyapong to release the pictures he (Kennedy Agyapong) claimed he had to expose him (Ibrahim) as having an amorous relationship with the busted cocaine Angle has elapsed. The source said Ibrahim Mahama has vowed to use all legitimate means to ensure the talkative NPP MP pay for dragging his name into the mud. Kennedy Agyapong was reported in the media recently to have said Nayele Ametefe used the VVIP lounge of the Kotoka International Airport because of her connection with Ibrahim Mahama. "�.But for this connection; she wouldn't get access to the VVIP, because of Ibrahim (Mahama). Yeah, I'm telling you. She got it because of Ibrahim,� he asserted. He dared the president�s brother to deny knowledge of any relationship with Nayele Ametefe. Ken Agyepong further challenged the business mogul to deny his claims, and he would be ready to lay bare pictures of the two in the public domain. "This girl has been to jail at Holland for three years. I don't have a problem with Ibrahim going out with her. But the problem I have with Ibrahim is that your brother is a President; you know that this girl [well-known drug dealer], when you're going out with this girl; you don't flaunt the relationship at the corridors (of power) to disgrace your brother. "It's not President Mahama but I know this girl for a fact that she goes out with Ibrahim. Let Ibrahim come and challenge, then I will make public all the pictures," he stated. Mr Ibrahim Mahama, however, denied the allegations and further challenged Ken Agyapong to publish the pictures. "I have never treasured such a path to wealth or success. I have been a businessman for many years, working very hard like many others to earn a decent living for myself and family. Illicit drugs are a no go area for me," he said. Interestingly, the acerbic mouth NPP MP, who was so boisterous with his accusations, has gone mum on the subject and has also not been able to back his words with action by publishing the pictures.
