My father John Mahama whom I\u2019m fighting for is yet to be elected as the Flagbearer of the NDC. So why should I create a bad image for myself simply because I want him to be President? if I do that then I\u2019m mistaken. Even when he was the President, I was not given any appointment so why should I go on fighting for his second term bid. If I\u2019m not careful someone will just kill me and say I\u2019ve been killed by operatives of the NPP government but that may not be the case. I beg President Akufo Addo and any other person I\u2019ve offended in politics to forgive me.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI know what I\u2019ve gone through in the past four days, what I\u2019ve experienced is enough, I don\u2019t want anymore of it. I\u2019m sure that even if ex President John Mahama is my brother, whatever he gets when he comes back to power he\u2019ll not share with me.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('audio');<\/script><![endif]--><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-118971-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/kasapafmonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Appiah-beg-Akufo-Addo.mp3?_=1\"\/><a href=\"http:\/\/kasapafmonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Appiah-beg-Akufo-Addo.mp3\">http:\/\/kasapafmonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Appiah-beg-Akufo-Addo.mp3<\/a><\/audio> <\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An NDC activist and avowed loyalist of former President John Mahama, Kweku Appiah aka Appiah Stadium, says he\u2019s ceased to be the vociferous defender of ex President that he\u2019s been in the past years.
