Outspoken NPP firebrand and MP for Assin North, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong says the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) was funded with cocaine money in 1992.He is alleging that during the formation of the NDC party in 1992, cocaine barons funded the party and that makes NDC a cocaine party.“We can also say NDC is cocaine party because the people who funded the NDC are cocaine barons and I challenge Alhaji Bature to dare me on this,” Kennedy Agyapong claimed.The MP made the allegation on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem in reaction to news reports that a certified quantity of cocaine tendered in court as evidence and handed over to the courts has turned into sodium bicarbonate.He however stopped short of mentioning who those cocaine barons in the NDC were.Earlier on during the show, NDC stalwart Alhaji Bature had said cocaine turning into sodium bicarbonate was not strange because a similar thing happened under the NPP administration.He recalled that in 2007 during the NPP era, 77 parcels of cocaine retrieved from the MV Benjamin vessel later turned into cassava powder (konkonte), under the watch of the police.There was drama in an circuit court on Tuesday, December 13 when piece of certified cocaine evidence was reportedly found to have turned into sodium bicarbonate.The court has charged the Inspector General of Police, Mr. Paul Tawiah Quaye to institute a service enquiry to determine the whereabouts of the cocaine.Meanwhile the court was forced to let go of the suspect on trial, Nana Ama Martin.Kennedy Ohene Agyapong was surprised that such a thing could happen under the NDC, after the party had labeled the NPP and its members as a bunch of cocaine barons.“The NDC has attributed my wealth to dealing in cocaine - if I was a cocaine dealer or a fraudster as the NDC claims, I would have been in jail by now,” he said.Mr. Agyepong called on the NDC to swallow their words on the claims that NPP is cocaine party, because this new development has caused a serious embarrassment for the government and the NDC.
