The Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agaypong has described as bluff investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas GHC25 million defamation suit.
Describing the amount stated in the suit as sheer ‘peanuts’, he argued that he is the least perturbed by the move, adding that it in no way will dissuade him from making the damning revelations he promised in a video he calls ‘Who watches the watchman’.
’I am not afraid of Anas. I will display cash. I will display cash. GHc25 million, I sit on that sh*t. That is a peanut. I am not afraid of Anas”
The maverick politician told Accra based Asempa FM that, the money is peanut and he will not struggle to pay.
‘’I am ready for Anas. I am not afraid of him. GHc25 million is nothing. So Anas is demanding for GHc25 million? He is so cheap. The amount a peanut.’’
“I will face him in court with my evidence. You will see the number of people who will bring their evidence against him. Is he [Anas] God? What is his case? Is he not the one denying that he is not the one I published? Anas said he was not the one”.
Kweku Baako said he was not the one. So who is the ghost that took me to court? You have denied categorically that you are not the person… So who is this Anas?
Kennedy Agyapong who was speaking to the station from China insisted that he is having the evidence to buttress his allegations of Anas being a blackmailer.
‘’I will make myself dirty before paying the money….I will disgrace some people before paying this money,’’ he said. Mr Agyapong said he was yet to be served with the writ but he was ready to face him in court “in style”, he added.
Meanwhile, he has also dropped a bombshell claiming that, Anas Aremeyaw Anas demanded an amount of $150,000 from Kwesi Nyantakyi so he will drop the tape against him.
He has also threatened to demand from the court to allow Anas take off his hood when the two meet in court.
The Controversial lawmaker for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong is indeed determined to go all lengths with investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas.
He will also fulfil his promise of premiering what he calls “Who Watches the Watchman” to prove his claims that Anas and his Tiger PI crew are not credible as many Ghanaians think.
Mr Kennedy Agyapong in the last couple of weeks has descended on the undercover journalist calling him names including a blackmailer, an extortionist and a criminal who needs to be hanged.
Earlier this week he promised to premiere his version of a movie on Anas maintain his earlier stance that the journalist has perpetrated a lot of havoc to the citizenry and deserves to be hanged.
Anas is seeking reliefs including general damages for libel against Mr Agyapong, as well as aggravated damages arising from some libelous comments published by Mr Agyapong in the sum of GHC25million.
