Suit Threat, Heated Exchanges: Watch the moment Afenyo-Markin called into a TV show to challenge Kpebu

Afenyo-Markin called into TV3’s The KeyPoints to refute an allegation made by the Majority Chief Whip, Rockson Nelson Dafeamekpor, that he used to “drive around with a 50-military-vehicle convoy following him.”

“This is a figment of someone’s imagination. I have never had 50 military vehicles follow me,” Afenyo-Markin fired back.

The Minority Leader explained that, like other Majority Leaders before him, he had access to a police convoy while in office.

“Haruna Iddrisu and Benjamin Kumbuor, my predecessors, had the same access. It’s about efficiency, not extravagance,” he clarified.

However, Martin Kpebu was not convinced, accusing Afenyo-Markin of being untruthful.

Kpebu insisted that Afenyo-Markin had used a military convoy while serving as Majority Leader and even claimed he could provide the names of the soldiers who were part of it.

Challenging Afenyo-Markin to confront him directly, Kpebu said, “Let us set a date for next Saturday. Let Afenyo-Markin come here!”

The lawyer then read a message from his phone, stating, “It is true that Afenyo-Markin moved with a military convoy, and among the team of soldiers was my own cousin.”

He reiterated his challenge, saying, “Please, let him come here next week. What is this? Let him come here next Saturday, and we will show him the names.”

But Martin Kpebu’s remarks did not sit well with Afenyo-Markin, who accused him of being unfair and disrespectful.

“I thought we had put the matter to a peaceful rest… I don’t think that Mr. Martin Kpebu is being fair in the things he is saying about me.

“If he says he received a text message, is that where we are taking Ghana to? I’m saying it is a lie; it is not true,”* the Minority Leader fumed.

He then threatened legal action against both the media house and Martin Kpebu.

“TV3, either you call him to retract his statement on the program, or I will take legal action, and he will have to produce his evidence in court. This is getting out of hand,” he warned.

As Afenyo-Markin spoke, Kpebu could be heard dismissing the legal threat, insisting that he had proof that the former Majority Leader used a military convoy while in office.
