Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, the Member of Parliament for Assin Central Constituency from the New Patriotic Party, has urged his followers to move on from the primary election events and rally behind Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for success in the upcoming December 7 elections.
Once I’m a party member, no matter what happened during the primaries, I think we are all one people and it will be best for all of us to come together.
So, I’m pleading with my supporters, let’s use my birthday to reconcile. I’m also appealing to the Vice President’s supporters, I know they are intimidating my supporters. If they want us to come together and unite for a united front, then they should also reciprocate the same favors I am rendering on behalf of my supporters.
The outspoken NPP legislator extended his gestures on Sunday, June 16 during his 64th birthday address. He gained recognition for hinting at a potential confrontation with the Vice President and ultimately the President following the NPP presidential primaries, where he finished as the runner-up to Dr. Bawumia.
Speculations arose earlier suggesting that he might consider running as an independent candidate due to his dissatisfaction with certain internal party procedures. However, the entrepreneur refuted these claims.
If you know me very well, I am not selfish and people have come to me several times that ‘Go independent, Go independent’.
I think that is not a wise thing to do. Therefore, I have refused to do that.
So, I’m pleading with the supporters and NPP party supporters [and] NPP people at large, everywhere, that with united front we can win the election in 2024.
Mr. Ohene Agyapong, the Board Chairman of Ghana National Gas Company, has expressed his regret for his recent outbursts in the Ashanti Region, where he falsely claimed to have stepped down from the ruling party. He has clarified that he remains committed to the NPP and has no intentions of resigning.
