The Member of Parliament for Assin Central Hon. Kennedy Ohene Agyapong has stated emphatically that, the people of Assin are naturally born bad and at the same time lazy.

According to him, the people of Assin have negative mindset that does not auger well for the development of the area.

Hon. Kennedy Ohene Agyapong made this comments in a one on one interview with Alfred Amoh on an Assin Fosu based radio station Nkwa 88.1fm.

According to the Assin Central lawmaker cum financier of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), he built a factory at his hometown Assin Dompim but the people of Assin didn’t patronize it and rather stole the electrical panels on the machines which has left the machines useless.

“I cultivated about 598 acres of rice which stretched from Assin Dompim to Assin Asempaneye with 800 workers but at the end, they didn’t even harvest 1000 bags of rice. You see that the Assin Nyankomasi fruit factory has also not functioned efficiently. One of the farmers said when he brought his oranges the guys who loaded the produce were not paid so he’s sending his produce to others in Burkina Faso. If you don’t change your bad mindset, I can only doll out gifts to you as I always do but will never again invest heavily in infrastructure in this area,” an incensed Ken Agyapong fumed.
