Controversial Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong has revealed that he tested
positive for the coronavirus days after his 60th birthday party celebration.
“It was after my 60th birthday party which I resisted so much and it exposed me to people who had
already tested positive…I dined with them and even for some people, they did not even have their nose
masks on while others had theirs down the chin,” he said.
Sharing his unsavoury personal experience with the disease, the Member of Parliament said he lost
weight drastically just five days after testing positive and this caused him to withdraw from all public
appearances.

Speaking in an interview with Adom News, the politician said,
“For over two weeks I was in quarantine; my nose was blocked and my bed was as if water had been poured on it coupled with a fever and within five days, I had lost weight drastically.”
Mr Kennedy Agyapong after having recovered from the disease has cautioned Ghanaians about the potency of the virus and warned that people remain resolute in adhering to safety protocols.
“I have recovered now and not shy to talk about it because I am a testimony but the disease is so real and we don’t have to joke with it,” Mr. Agyapong urged.
During his 60th birthday celebration, Kennedy Agyapong was captured in a viral video seated in the midst of his close family and friends, engaging in a cheerful conversation.
