Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, a New Patriotic Party flagbearer candidate, has stated that he is presently the only lawmaker in Ghana whose goal is shared by common Ghanaians.
According to the Assin Central Member of Parliament, members of the Ghana Armed Forces are fully supportive of his presidential candidacy due to his past and contributions to the army’s welfare.
“Ghana is hard but soldiers are saying that ‘Kennedy Agyapong, do not listen to anyone asking you to resign from the contest because you will win the 2024 election.’ Why are soldiers asking me not to resign? Because I am the only man in the history of Ghana who has taken $6 million from his pocket to build a cardio and dialysis centre at the 37 Military Hospital.
“I am the only politician who has five fish ponds each spanning one kilometre at Atwima Kwanwoma in the Ashanti Region which I have gifted to the Ghana Armed Forces to be used in feeding soldiers. Because of that the soldiers ‘say we will reward you for the good you have done for us. If you don’t believe it, come to Burma Camp and conduct a survey, about 85% of soldiers will vote for you,”
Kennedy Ohene Agyapong and other NPP leaders have announced their candidacy for the party’s flagbearership ahead of the 2024 presidential elections.
Former Trade Minister Alan Kyerematen and Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia are among his rivals.
However, addressing to party fans in a viral video, Kennedy Agyapong stated that he remains the only feasible contender in the NPP capable of beating former President John Dramani Mahama, who is regarded as the National Democratic Congress’s ‘presumptive’ flagbearer.
