Outspoken former Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe, widely known as Abronye, has once again set the political scene ablaze with a series of bold revelations, alleging deep-rooted inconsistencies and hidden agendas behind several projects linked to former President John Agyekum Kufuor, sitting President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, and US-based Ghanaian journalist Kevin Taylor.
Speaking in a fiery session on Ohia TV, Abronye accused these figures of either directly or indirectly participating in schemes that have drained public resources and misled Ghanaians. His statements, captured in a video posted on Thursday, October 16, 2025, have since gone viral, sparking heated discussions within political circles and on social media.
According to Abronye, there are several projects initiated under both the Kufuor and Akufo-Addo administrations that were presented to the public as national development initiatives, but in reality, he claimed, they were politically motivated programs designed to benefit a select few. He alleged that many of these projects either remain uncompleted or have become tools for corruption and political manipulation.
“Some of the projects you hear them boast about are not what they seem,” Abronye charged. “Millions of Ghana cedis have been wasted under the guise of development, and people act as though the public will never find out. But I am speaking the truth — the country deserves to know what really happened.”
In what many describe as a daring move, Abronye also took aim at Kevin Taylor, the controversial social commentator based in the United States. He accused Taylor of being part of a coordinated propaganda network that deliberately distorts facts to destroy the image of people who challenge corruption and political hypocrisy in Ghana.
“Kevin Taylor is not fighting for the truth — he is fighting for influence and power,” Abronye said. “He receives support from political connections, and his so-called investigations are selective. He will never talk about the projects and hidden dealings that favor his paymasters.”
The outspoken politician further claimed that several infrastructural projects celebrated under both the Kufuor and Akufo-Addo governments — including certain road contracts, youth development schemes, and state-funded housing projects — were either inflated or poorly executed. He argued that such failures have deprived ordinary Ghanaians of the benefits they were promised, even though billions have been spent.
Abronye insisted that it was time for accountability, not excuses. He urged Ghanaians to demand transparency about how much money was actually spent on these projects and who the beneficiaries were. “If we call ourselves a democratic country,” he said, “then no one, not even a former president, should be above scrutiny.”
Political analysts say Abronye’s comments, though controversial, reflect a growing frustration within the ruling NPP as internal factions battle over loyalty, truth, and legacy. While some NPP insiders see him as a necessary voice of truth who speaks what others fear to say, others believe his repeated attacks are widening cracks within the party and weakening its public image.
Supporters of both Kufuor and Akufo-Addo have dismissed Abronye’s claims as unfounded and politically motivated, describing them as part of a personal crusade to stay relevant in the media spotlight. But to many watchers, his track record of fearlessly confronting corruption, even within his own party, gives some weight to his allegations.
Abronye’s latest outburst also follows his recent verbal battles with several political figures, including Kennedy Agyapong and other NPP members. Observers believe his comments are part of a larger pattern of frustration with what he perceives as hypocrisy and moral decay in Ghana’s political elite.
“I will continue to speak no matter who it offends,” Abronye declared on the show. “When you speak truth to power, they call you bitter. But silence has destroyed this nation more than anything else. The truth must be said — even if it costs me my life.”
As the controversy continues to spread, Ohia TV’s video has been widely shared across digital platforms, with viewers split over whether Abronye is a genuine whistleblower or simply stirring chaos. Meanwhile, neither Kevin Taylor, nor representatives of former President Kufuor or President Akufo-Addo, have publicly responded to the allegations.
Political commentators warn that such revelations, if left unaddressed, could deepen mistrust between government officials and the public. They argue that both the NPP and the state’s anti-corruption agencies must investigate these claims thoroughly to maintain the integrity of governance.
For now, Abronye’s explosive words have reignited debate over transparency and truth in Ghana’s politics — a debate that continues to expose the uneasy relationship between loyalty, truth, and power.
