From “I Got Money” to “Please Donate” The Gospel According to Ken
Not too long ago, Kennedy Agyapong thundered before the cameras, “I GOT MONEY! YOU POOR, AND YOU WANT TO CHALLENGE ME?”—a mantra of arrogance now echoing in tragic irony.
Today, the same man parades a digital begging bowl, pleading for donations to “support his campaign.” The once self-proclaimed billionaire now passes the hat like a street performer at Circle, chanting, “Donate to support Kennedy Agyapong 2025 Campaign.”
What happened to the empire of wealth? The yachts, the mansions, the millions?
Business and financial analysts would rightly tell you: men like him never spend their own money on politics they profit from it. They draw from the pockets of sympathizers and the sweat of the poor, while pretending to fight for them. Ah, how the mighty have misplaced their millions!
The self-anointed millionaire who bragged about owning fleets, factories, and fortunes now needs the market woman’s one cedi to oil his campaign engine. The irony? He’s not just asking, he’s pleading. Suddenly, “I got money” has become “I got Momo.”
If Kennedy Agyapong truly had the financial muscle he bragged about, why is he now soliciting cedis and coins from the very people he once mocked as poor people? This is not generosity; it’s desperation disguised as strategy.
Financial analysts must be choking on their calculators. They’ll tell you what the rest of us already know, Kennedy Agyapong will not spend on his campaign; he will earn from it.
For some, politics isn’t service, it’s business rebranded as patriotism. The donations will flow, the accounts will glow, and somewhere in the fine print, the poor will still pay the price.
Not even Okyire Bosum of the Goom Party, Ghana’s prophet of confusion has never descended into such a comedy of contradictions. Among all the contenders, none has advertised their own insolvency with such enthusiasm. Even Akpaloo and Ayariga, with all their political eccentricities, ever stooped to such comic contradiction in soliciting for donations to fund their political campaigns. Among the five contenders, who else is out there rattling a tin cup for campaign funds? None. Only Kennedy Agyapong the self-proclaimed millionaire turned political mendicant.
Kennedy Agyapong has managed to achieve the impossible: he has turned campaign fundraising into a public confessional of hypocrisy. Because Kennedy Agyapong doesn’t only lack what it takes to lead a nation, he’s proving he lacks even what it takes to fund his own ambition.
So, when next he shouts, “I GOT MONEY,” remind him politely:
Yes, sir! other people’s money.
