Former TV host of Net 2 TV’s show known for exposing ‘fake’ pastors, Kwaku Annan, has taken a swipe at President Akufo-Addo over an alleged claim of consistent changing of the cooks and chefs of the president over alleged claims of poisoning following reports of John Kumah’s death being blamed on poisoning.
Speaking on his new political programme called ‘The Frontline’ on CTV on March 22, 2024, which is part of CMG, he quizzed why the president’s outfit keeps changing their kitchen staff.
He asked, “How many times, I will like to ask how many times they have changed the cooks of the president? And why would they change them? Is it because they no longer look appealing, or is there something else? I ain’t talking about a minister; oh, I’m talking about the president himself”
The outspoken host, also, continued by slamming members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) for their wickedness and desire to kill their own members over political power and dominance. According to him, the death of the late Finance Minister and MP for Ejisu’s death was caused by member(s) of his own party, NPP.
“John Kumah’s job is an inside job, You people are very wicked people” he fumed.

Ian Watkins, who is a 68-year-old reverend, became very sick in late July after eating a meal of beef wellington in a small town called Leongatha. The meal was cooked and served to him by Erin Patterson, according to Victoria Police.
Gail Patterson, who was 70 years old, and her sister Heather Wilkinson, who was 66 years old, died in the hospital. Gail’s husband, Don, who was also 70 years old, passed away a day later.
Watkins held on, very sick and possibly needing a liver transplant, but he got better enough to leave the hospital last Friday.
The spokesperson for Ian Wilkinson’s family said that he is getting better and making good progress in his recovery. The family also thanked the medical staff for taking care of him. “This important achievement brings great relief and gratitude to Ian and the whole Wilkinson family. ”
Patterson, who has not been accused of a crime, said she did nothing wrong. She told the local media that she didn’t know the mushrooms she used in the recipe were harmful.
I am really upset and sad to think that these mushrooms might have caused my loved ones to get sick. I want to make it clear that I had no intention of hurting these people that I cared about, said Patterson in a statement to the police, as reported by ABC.
She said she bought the mushrooms for the meal from two different stores.
Victoria Police said on Monday that they are still investigating the deaths.
When people found out about the investigation in early August, Detective Inspector Dean Thomas from the Victoria Police homicide squad said that Patterson was a suspect because she prepared the meal and was the only grown-up at the lunch who didn’t get sick.
Patterson’s guests showed signs of being poisoned by poisonous death cap mushrooms called Amanita phalloides, according to Thomas. However, there are no reports yet that show exactly what they ate.
He said that Patterson and her husband, Simon, have split up. Simon’s parents died after they had dinner together. But he also said that their relationship is still friendly.
We need to be open-minded about this situation. “It might not mean anything bad,” Thomas said back then. “But once more, we currently don’t have any information. four people arrived and three of them died, while another one is in critical condition, so we need to handle this situation.
Wilkinson, who is a reverend at Korumburra Baptist Church, is the only person who survived. He will provide important information about what might have occurred that evening.
His family thanked their community for their support but requested privacy even though many people are interested in the case.
This caring and support from everyone has been a strong source of comfort for Ian and his family, making us feel even more connected and caring in our community.
“We know people are interested in Ian getting better, but we ask everyone, including the media, to be thoughtful and respect the family’s wishes. ”
