Maverick New Patriotic Party (NPP) MP for Assin Central Constituency, Kennedy Agyapong has expressed regrets that politics has taken the better side of an otherwise beautiful relationship that exists between himself and former president Mahama and his family.
According to him, but for politics, the cordial and warm relationship with the former First family was superb and the envy of many including members of his own party, the NPP
He expressed worry that such beautiful and blossoming relationships with perceived opponents are truncated usually because of the entrenched positions that people expect them to take.
