Kennedy Agyapong, the former Member of Parliament for Assin Central, has taken a surprising stance on his recent legal loss, saying it’s actually made him stronger and more resilient.
This comes after investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas won a massive $18 million defamation lawsuit against him in the US.
Hon. Agyapong’s comments suggest he’s trying to spin the defeat as a positive experience, but the court’s decision was clear: his actions were deemed malicious and reckless.
In a surprising turn of events, Kennedy Agyapong has responded to his defamation lawsuit loss with a message of gratitude and resilience.
Despite being ordered to pay $18 million to investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas, Agyapong expressed appreciation to his supporters for standing by him and urged them to remain calm.
The verdict, delivered by a jury in Essex County, New Jersey, was a significant win for Anas, but Kennedy Agyapong seems determined to spin the loss into a positive.
He claims the experience has made him a better person and strengthened his resolve to speak for the voiceless.
“Your support means the world to me, as it acknowledges my dedication to advocating for those who cannot speak for themselves.
Let’s remain calm and united, for it’s inevitable that those who dare to speak truth to power and fight for the marginalized will face challenges.
However, I can confidently say that this experience has only strengthened my resolve to defend our nation and the voiceless, making me a better and more resilient individual,” he stated.
