Supporters of Kennedy Agyapong of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) are urging him to run as an unbiased candidate within the 2024 elections.
This comes after Mr Agyapong misplaced the NPP’s presidential primary to Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
Mr Kwabena Yankey, the group’s chairperson, addressing a press convention in Accra on Tuesday, cited Mr Agyapong’s significant contributions to Ghana’s financial development as the first purpose for his or her help.
He highlighted Mr Agyapong’s investments in job creation and infrastructure improvement as proof of his suitability for the presidency.
“We the supporters of Kennedy Agyapong representing the 37 per cent of the NPP delegates, wish to inform the general public that Kennedy Agyapong needs to be the next president of Ghana. We are advocating Kennedy Agyapong and we urge him to stand as an independent candidate for a massive win in 2024,” he stated.
While acknowledging the latest inside struggles inside the NPP, Yankey maintained that Agyapong’s unbiased candidacy provided the most effective hope for nationwide progress.
“Kennedy Agyapong renowned for his outspoken nature and unwavering love, has demonstrated his dedication through his actions and spearheaded the establishment of companies that employ 7,000 workers. His initiative to construct a state-of-the-art cardio hospital whose investment surpasses $7 million underscores his commitment to the well-being of Ghana,” he stated.
He stated “Despite the recent setbacks within the NPP, we continue to believe that supporting him as an independent candidate is crucial for Ghanaians to foster growth, innovation and social welfare of the nation.”
