During an interview with Adom FM on September 11, 2024, Morrison shared, “After I returned from abroad, my people urged me to run as an independent candidate… I didn’t have Bawumia’s T-shirt because, as you know, I supported Kennedy Agyapong."

“That is why people are coming against me, but I have not regretted it one bit. Throughout the campaign period, I knew Dr. Bawumia would win, and if he wins, I will support him as an NPP member.

“But others don’t understand it that way and question why I did that, so I have to be punished. But that is not my concern at all. I have told you I have no regret for doing that at all. My support for Kennedy orchestrated 80% of my punishment.”
