Kennedy Agyapong is a former Assin Central lawmaker and NPP presidential hopeful
The 2024 presidential aspirant of the New Patriotic Party, Kennedy Agyapong has been trending over the weekend following a viral video where he had met what looked like his supporters and pitching himself for flagbearer of the party in the 2028 elections.
In the video, Kennedy insinuated that the church voted against the 2024 flagbearer of the party, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, perhaps on religious grounds and asked the supporters to elect him.
“In this church we are in, they spoke. I am speaking in parables. The church spoke but we did not listen and we have seen what has happened.”
“If they want power, Ghanaians say it is only Kennedy Agyapong they will vote for.”
“Do you want to remain home for another 4 years or 8 years? Are you ready for that? Let us listen to what the people are saying. Let us listen to what Ghanaians are saying”, he said on the viral video.
But Kennedy Agyapong’s comments seem to have backfired on him, hence attracting condemnation with social media users labeling his character to reek of hypocrisy.
Some critics have accused him of working against Bawumia and the New Patriotic Party in the 2024 elections.
In the wake of the current happenings within the NPP, several videos of Kennedy Agyapong making disparaging statements about the party which resulted in their defeat in the 2024 elections have popped up.
Serving as a flashback, Mr Agyapong was heard on the video vigorously campaigning against his own party.
He said; “The situation we are in now, Ghanaians don’t need change; change needs Ghanaians. Yes, Ghanaians don’t need change, change needs us.”
Further calling for a change of government, in an interview with KSM, Kennedy Agyapong added; “It means that we’ve gone past change. The situation is worse that the change itself is now saying that please come and let me change you.”
