Dr Kofi Konadu Apraku, a presidential candidate for the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), thinks he stands out among the other contenders for the position.
The finest candidate to head the party on the flagbearership ticket in the run-up to the 2024 elections, he said, is him.
The former trade and industry minister for the John Agyekum Kufuor administration was one of seventeen candidates for NPP flagbearer in 2007, however, she only received 19 votes.
Dr Apraku stated certainty that his background puts him in a stronger position to win the party’s presidential nomination, which would propel him to the role of leader of the nation.
Speaking with Umaru Sanda Amadu on Eyewitness News, Dr Apraku stated, “I’m confident that my old experience is what is prevailing. I have a lot of experience, I think I’m in a better position than ever before to win this election and lead this country. I stand very tall among all the aspirants, my experience is overwhelming. I have practical experience in managing economies and dealing with current problems. Furthermore, I believe I have a better chance than anybody in this race to win. The taste of the pudding is in the eating”.
Touching on if NPP delegates will this time round vote massively for him, the former Offinso North Member of Parliament underscored, “there is time for everything, you may also recall that the first time I went, I was number three. I did far better than in the last instance. Well times are different now, and I have been around the country, I have been to fourteen 14, out of the sixteen 16 regions in our country”.
