Kwabena Agyapong chooses Bawumia over Ken Agyapong

Mr. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, one of the people who wanted to be flagbearer of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), has made a choice ahead of the party’s delegate conference on Saturday November 4, 2023, to choose a presidential candidate. Kwabena Agyapong also explains why he chooses Bawumia over Kennedy Agyapong.

He has picked Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia over Kennedy Ohene Agyapong.

Talking in a zoom interview he said “between Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and Ken Ohene Agyapong, in all good conscience, I prefer Dr. Bawumia to become the candidate of the party”.

As per to him he has a feeling that he would be totally different from the current situation.

The previous General Secretary of the ruling party pointed out that in Ghana late President Atta Mills who took over from late President John Rawlings is an example and former President Rawlings was always lamenting that, late Atta Mills does not listen.

“Power when it’s in your hands, you are the one who runs the show. I do not believe in the narrative that the cabal behind Akufo Addo would be controlling him pulling strings from behind. I want to give him that benefit of the doubt; the only way he can give the party and himself the good opportunity of winning is to demonstrate to the party and Ghanaians by his actions the decisions he make that he is his own man”.

He further added that, if he is in the power of helping the vice president achieve that, he will so the party would give itself a meaningful chance of winning. “I am a party person and respect the decision of the party.

He was in any case; quick to point out that as a party, they have allowed such countless things that have gone down unchecked and they need a new era. “We want a new dawn of decisive and solid leadership; it can be done and be achieved”.

Asked about Alan Kyeremanten’s resignation, he said he disagrees with a lot of reasons set up by his team justifying why he left, “however that is his decision, I do not want to invest a lot of energy on it”, he emphasized.
