Kennedy Agyapong is one of the
politicians who have never lost any parliamentary election he contested. He was first elected as MP in the year 2000. Kennedy Agyapong was once a chairman of the Communication Committee of Parliament. Agyapong vowed to commit suicide if former President
John Mahama's brother,
Ibrahim Mahama, is not jailed by the Akufo-Addo government for some alleged corrupt activities which, according to Agyapong, had led to the state losing money. One of his claims was that Ibrahim defaulted in his taxes for over year when his brother was President of the Republic of
Ghana. The allegation was investigated and Ibrahim eventually paid the taxes with accompanying fines. This action earned Agyapong praises from Ghanaians. Prior to Election 2016, Agyapong constantly attacked Chairperson of the Electoral Commission,
Charlotte Osei.He alleged in one of his attacks that the EC Boss had traded sex for her position. Agyapong was widely condemned. In 2018, undercover Journalist,
Anas Aremeyaw Anas, released
Number 12, an investigative documentary about corruption in Ghana football and it resulted in the arrest and subsequent resignation of
Ghana Football Association president,
Kwesi Nyantakyi. Agyapong labelled the investigative journalist a rogue, and appealed that he be stopped before he began intruding people's privacy, including in their bedrooms. He launched a counter campaign against Anas, publicly broadcasting a documentary; Who watches the watchman, in which he allegedly shows the “unfair” investigation methods and corrupt sides of the investigator and his team, and Reporters Without Borders. In June 2018, he broadcast images of
Ahmed Hussein-Suale, an undercover agent and protégé of Anas on his Net2 TV and called for retribution against the journalist. Weeks later, Hussein-Suale was murdered at his Madina neighbourhood in the country's capital. In July 2018, after describing Parliament of Ghana as useless, Agyapong was hauled before the Privileges Committee for contempt of Parliament. Before the committee, he denied labeling the legislature as useless, insisting that he was misquoted. Agyapong eventually apologised and the matter was settled. In 2025, an American court awarded $18 million in damages against Agyepong in a case brought against him by Anas. The court later slashed the damage to $500
Committees. In the eighth Parliament, Agyapong is the chairperson for the Defense and Interior Committee. He is also a member of the Judiciary Committee and also, the Special Budget Committee. == Presidential Bid ==
