On Sunday, May 17, 2026, Kwasi Poku celebrated his 57th birthday and 25th birthday anniversary at the Evergreen Church in Accra.

The colourful celebration brought together family, friends, political allies, and well-wishers in an atmosphere filled with happiness, music, dancing, and appreciation for the Tema West NPP Chairman’s long-standing marriage and dedication to both family and party service.

Prominent NPP executives, including the General Secretary, Justin Frimpong Kodua and Kennedy Agyapong, were present at the event to celebrate with Kwasi Poku and his family.

Kennedy Agyapong fails to join birthday celebrations

In a series of videos seen by YEN.com.gh, Kennedy Agyapong, wearing an all-white outfit, was spotted arriving at the church premises in his luxurious 2019-registered Bentley Mulsanne.

He exchanged pleasantries with Justin Kodua before sitting among some NPP officials in the front row of the church.

Kennedy, who lost his bid to become the flagbearer of the NPP to former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in the 2026 presidential primaries, remained seated and appeared disinterested in the church activities during his appearance at Kwasi Poku's celebration.

As Kodua and his other NPP colleagues sang and danced at the birthday event, the former Assin Central MP remained seated, glued to his smartphone.

He eventually exited the church premises after the event concluded, interacted with a few attendees in the parking lot, and then entered his Bentley and left.

In recent weeks, the former MP has been linked with both the Base Movement and the Base Ghana First, two breakaway parties from the NPP, spearheaded by his close friend and businessman Dr George Oti Bonsu and veteran Kumawood actor Agya Koo.
