We need to find the best way to ensure that Korle Bu works the way we all want it to work.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cYou need somebody who\u2019ll be neutral to tell them exactly what is there for them to understand and I wish I could have an audience with the President himself because it looks like most of the things don\u2019t get to him\u2026yes I feel sad for him. I feel he has good intentions but he\u2019s not going to achieve it.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>However,\u00a0 A Plus in an interview with Asempa FM Thursday suspects some persons in the ruling party are out to use political power to destroy him and tarnish his reputation, but vowed to resist any such move targeted at him.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI say everybody should leave this matter to rest, the police issued a statement describing my claims as baseless but I kept quiet in my small corner. If someone thinks that A Plus must be sacrificed the person should re-think. I\u2019ve received several calls since morning with people asking me to keep my cool and not comment on this matter anymore. Now this statement has been released and still people say I shouldn\u2019t talk? I\u2019ll not do that.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>I\u2019ve spent 10 years supporting President Akufo Addo, wayback in 2007 when the NPP was going to congress, I organised my first float for Nana Addo from Mallam Junction to Obra Spot (Nkrumah Circle) nobody gave me a dime for that exercise. We\u2019ve spent time supporting Nana Addo to become President and we still believe in Nana Addo. The CID claims I\u2019ve not been able to prove my allegation, case close, but if anybody thinks he can use political power to sacrifice me, when that person moves one step, I\u2019ll move two steps. There\u2019s nobody who can intimidate me. When people were taking V8, we were looking for money to run campaign.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cToday we come to power and we have a simple issue, this issue has been solved and people think they can finish me. See I don\u2019t want anything, people will say that I have contract at BOST, you can take it, I\u2019m not talking to anyone about this issue, if the woman thinks I\u2019ve doctored the tape and it\u2019s criminal she should come and arrest me. Nobody can intimidate me.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cEight years in opposition, I was living in an estate, I was driving and changing my cars everytime. NPP can take their government, people can take the contract, I\u2019m here to support Nana Addo. Let people continue to defend issues, John Mahama used three months to win an election and used four months to lose another election miserably.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('audio');<\/script><![endif]--><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-119527-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/kasapafmonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/A_Plus-Gag.mp3?_=1\"\/><a href=\"http:\/\/kasapafmonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/A_Plus-Gag.mp3\">http:\/\/kasapafmonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/A_Plus-Gag.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/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>Controversial Musician and Member of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Asare Obeng aka A Plus has served notice that he\u2019ll resist any attempt by some persons in the party to gag or sacrifice him.
