Ghanaian social media has gone wild with the striking resemblance of one of Kennedy Agyapong’s bodyguards “Kudus” to the artist impression of the probable faces of the alleged killers of the undercover journalist Ahmed Husein-Suale.
Controversial Journalist Kelvin Taylor, the controversial journalist was the first to draw parallels between the striking resemblance of the unnamed bodyguard of the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP)’S Assin Central Member of Parliament-Ken Agyapong to a sketched portrait of the alleged killers.
The coincidence of this resemblance is weirdly striking, given the fact that Mr. Agyapong has been the one who put a bounty on Suale’s head after he exposed deep rot within the Ghana Football Association (GFA) and possible high profile bribery at the Jubilee House.
Kudus who is believed to be a member of the notorious militia associated with the governing party, is believed to be a trusted hatchet man for the loudmouthed Kennedy Agyapong.
He was in the news in 2016 for allegedly attempting to kidnap one Julian Mawuse Cobbinah, the then President of the National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS).
Last week, Anas Aremeyaw Anas, the founder of Tiger Eye PI, the organisation Suale worked for before he was eliminated, released a forensic sketch of the possible faces of the alleged killers of Suale.
According to Forbidden Stories a United States-based non-profit for journalists, it mounted an independent investigation into the assassination of Ahmed-Suale and subsequently gave the said drawing to the Ghana Police Service to follow up, but they threw them under the carpet.
According to Guillaume Perrier from Forbidden Stories, he travelled to Madina, the Accra neighbourhood where Ahmed Suale was murdered to talk to some eyewitnesses.
“Eyewitnesses clearly recognised the portraits that have been drawn and given to the police investigators, but that did not lead to any arrest…,” Perrier stated as a wave of international media organisations wade in to probe why for exactly one year of the assassination, the police investigators appear to have gone to sleep.
Ahmed Suale was the principal witness in an undercover exposé that showed massive corruption at the Kwasi Nyantakyi-headed Ghana Football Association (GFA).
In June 2018, Tiger Eye PI released a documentary dubbed Number 12. It captured the bribery, corruption and match-fixing at the GFA when Nyantakyi was its President.
More damning was part of the documentary that captured Nyantakyi boldly boasting about how he was organising some US$12 million to bribe President Akufo Addo, Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia and several ministers in exchange for juicy state contracts.
When the documentary hit the streets, the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) was furious, with one of its Members of Parliament, Kennedy Agyapong, launching a serious offensive against Suale and Tiger Eye PI.
Eventually, Mr. Agyapong placed a bounty on the head of Ahmed Suale and exposed his identity publicly. Ahmed Suale and the Tiger Eye PI crew have always operated under serious disguise due to the dangerous nature of their undercover investigations.
Kennedy Agyapong has denied involvement in the assassination, however, critics are not certain he is telling the truth, as he has been linked with several death threats in the past couple of years.
