Assin Central’s Kennedy Agyapong, a member of parliament, has reiterated his commitment to pursuing his campaign to run for the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) presidential flagbearership in 2024.
He has specifically addressed the threat that two leading candidates, Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia and Trade and Industry Minister Alan Kyerematen, posed to his campaign.
The two candidates have not officially declared their candidacy in the race, which is anticipated to be decided in 2023 before the subsequent elections.
“There is nothing electorally fearful about Alan and Bawumia, everyone will have to sell what they have done for the party, if their idea is bought, you move forward. And I know that I have done a lot for the NPP on which basis the grassroots will vote for me,” he said late last week.
Stressing that he was not going to quit the race at the last minute, Agyapong cited a research that showed he was the overwhelming choice of the yuth.
“If I am the choice of the youth, and the youth are going to vote for me, then delegates should look at the youth, 88% of whom have committed to voting for me per a survey. Consider their preference and vote for me,” he stated.
