“I am for Ken [Kennedy Agyapong] forever. I will support him till thy kingdom come. Whether he wins or not, I will continue to support him because he is someone who speaks the truth. God works with the truth so how will the country prosper if we refuse to speak the truth?” he said in a video shared on his social media platform.
Great Ampong went further to criticize the judiciary for the lack of transparency and fairness in their rulings.
“People are in their homes crying because there is no justice in the country. The moment you speak the truth they tag you as arrogant and say all sorts of things about you.
"So if you are a poor person and you die in an accident, and your family wants to seek justice at the court, they should forget it because it won’t happen. We can go for all the loans to help fix the economy but if we don’t get honest leaders, the nation will continue to suffer,” said Great Ampong.
