Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly referred to as A Plus, candidly shared his thoughts in an interview on Channel One TV that was recorded by MyNewsGh, discussing his political path, aspirations, and the experiences that influenced his perspectives.
“I entered politics to show people that if I want to, I can be here,” A Plus boldly declared, recounting the moment he announced his candidacy. “I wanted to prove that you shouldn’t waste time debating what others can’t achieve, focus on what you can achieve,” he added with passion.
A Plus reflected on his experience with the NPP, stating that although he once respected Nana Akufo-Addo and backed his presidential campaign, his forthright demeanor resulted in several disagreements.
“They gave me a job, but when they realized I wasn’t someone who would keep quiet, they pulled back,” A Plus explained. “I’m not the kind to be reserved. If I’m hired, I’ll express myself.”
Although he had a difficult relationship with the NPP, A Plus stressed that he held no resentment.
“I don’t inherit enemies,” he asserted.
“I still believe in the leadership of the NPP and have good relationships with many people in the party.”
Asked about his future in politics, A Plus hinted at his broader ambitions, stating, “I want to be everything. Maybe even president one day, who knows?” But when it comes to his current political career, A Plus is clear: “I’m happy where I am for now, and I’ll leave the rest to God.”
When asked if he ever wanted a ministerial position, A Plus was adamant, “I will never be a minister. I want to live my life freely, be myself, and enjoy my time with my friends.
Being a minister comes with too many constraints.” Instead, he emphasized his desire for a flexible, fulfilling life without the constraints of political office.
