He was born on 2nd June 1978 in Akyem Oda in the Eastern Region. My parents and I also come from Akyem Oda.

He schooled at St. Anthony Primary School in Akyem Oda; Awisa Presby JSS at Akyem Awisa and Adisadel College in Cape Coast.

Kofi Asamoah-Siaw contested in the 2012 Parliamentary elections on the ticket of the PPP for the Akyem Oda Constituency.

He is a Methodist and married to Belinda Gifty Adjei with three children. My mission in politics is to work with others to end the subjugation of the state interest to partisan interest and super-power.
