I Will Take Something Precious From You, And You’ll Never Be Happy Again – Kevin Taylor Warns Okatakyie Afrifa

The ongoing feud between U.S.-based Ghanaian political commentator Kevin Taylor and Ghanaian broadcaster Okatakyie Afrifa Mensah has escalated significantly. Taylor recently issued a severe threat, stating, “I will take something precious from you, and you will never be happy again.” This alarming declaration has intensified the public dispute between the two media personalities.

The conflict began when Taylor criticized Afrifa’s perceived selective stance on government misconduct, accusing him of bias and tribalism. Afrifa responded by attacking Taylor’s personal life, alleging that Taylor operates from his wife’s basement in the U.S. and uses her equipment to produce his content.

Afrifa further claimed that Taylor had returned to Ghana to seek a government appointment from the National Democratic Congress (NDC), suggesting that Taylor is attempting to leverage his influence for personal gain.

In retaliation, Taylor accused Afrifa of spreading hmmisinformation regarding the procurement of tricycle-style ambulances, asserting that these vehicles were introduced in 2021 under the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government, not during the tenure of former President John Dramani Mahama.

The exchange has grown increasingly personal, with both parties resorting to threats and derogatory remarks. Taylor’s recent threat to take something precious from Afrifa marks a concerning escalation in their feud, raising questions about the potential consequences of their public spat.

Observers have expressed concern over the deteriorating discourse between the two figures, noting that such public conflicts can have broader implications for media professionalism and public trust. As the situation develops, many are calling for a de-escalation and a return to constructive dialogue.

It remains to be seen how this feud will unfold and what impact it may have on the careers and reputations of both Kevin Taylor and Okatakyie Afrifa Mensah.
