A former Government Spokesperson on Governance and Security, Dr Palgrave Boakye-Danquah, has officially thrown his support behind Kennedy Agyapong as the ideal candidate to lead the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and ultimately become President of Ghana in the 2028 general elections.
According to a statement by him and made available to GhanaWeb, Dr Boakye-Danquah drew inspiration from former US President Abraham Lincoln’s famous quote, “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.”
He argued that Kennedy Agyapong has not only overcome adversity but has also demonstrated an admirable capacity to wield influence with integrity.
“Agyapong’s life and career reflect a character shaped not only by overcoming challenges but also by wielding influence with integrity, He is the exemplary leader to guide the NPP and Ghana toward a thriving future from 2028,” he stated.
He commended Agyapong’s long-standing advocacy for truth, fairness, and justice, adding that his track record of confronting corruption and championing transparency in both political and public spheres make him an ideal candidate for the highest office.
“His relentless pursuit of accountability, confronting corruption in both political and public arenas, highlights a character that flourishes under the responsibilities of power, driven not by personal gain but by a commitment to the welfare of Ghanaians,” he added.
Dr Boakye-Danquah, who served in President Akufo-Addo’s administration from 2017 to 2024, described Kennedy Agyapong as a courageous and visionary leader whose style of leadership is empathetic and service-driven.
“I proudly endorse Kennedy Ohene Agyapong as the optimal leader to steer the NPP and Ghana from 2028. His proven record of service and steadfast integrity align perfectly with Lincoln’s vision of leadership,” he concluded.
