US-based Ghanaian journalist Kevin Taylor has stirred controversy by making bold claims about Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, popularly known as Napo, the Vice-Presidential candidate for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the 2024 General Elections. According to Kevin Taylor, Napo allegedly had a serious confrontation that left him nearly bedridden.
Kevin Taylor, during one of his broadcasts, alleged that Napo had a disagreement with someone from northern Ghana, which escalated to the point where Napo slapped the person. Taylor claims that in retaliation, the person placed a curse on Napo instead of responding physically. The curse, he alleged, worked swiftly and led to a series of health complications for Napo, almost resulting in a stroke.
The journalist described Napo as a "Walking Dead," making harsh comments about his appearance, claiming he looks pale and unhealthy. He went as far as to accuse Napo of excessive alcohol consumption, further suggesting that his lifestyle might be contributing to his frail appearance. Taylor added that Napo now looks like someone who could be selling pestles, emphasizing the noticeable changes in his physical appearance.
Kevin Taylor’s comments followed the circulation of a recent photograph of Napo, which showed him looking slimmer and paler than usual. This photograph surfaced after Napo's superior, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the NPP’s Presidential candidate, held a media briefing the previous Sunday. The image sparked discussions online, with many people speculating about Napo's health.
Taylor’s comments have been met with mixed reactions from the public, as some people consider his words too harsh and inappropriate, while others believe there may be some truth to his claims. Given the high-profile nature of Napo's political role as Bawumia’s running mate, concerns about his health have become a topic of public interest, especially as the 2024 elections draw closer.
However, it is important to note that Napo has not publicly responded to these allegations. Neither the NPP nor Dr. Bawumia’s camp has made any official statement addressing the claims made by Kevin Taylor.
The journalist is known for his outspoken nature and his willingness to make bold claims about Ghanaian politicians, often stirring public debate.
