Adwoa Safo kicks against Kennedy Agyapong's candidacy
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that Sarah Adwoa Safo, the former Member of Parliament for Dome-Kwabenya, had kicked against Kennedy Agyapong's candidacy in the NPP flagbearer race.
Speaking to NPP delegates, she said the presidential aspirant has a bad history of using intemperate language on women, including herself.
Adwoa Safo consequently urged NPP delegates to reject Kennedy Agyapong in the party's flagbearer race.
