A member of Kennedy Agyapong’s campaign team, Kwesi Nyantakyi has described the flagbearer hopeful as the most popular and electable figure within Ghana’s political landscape, citing what he says is broad appeal across party lines.
Speaking on Joy FM’s AM Show, Nyantakyi argued that Agyapong’s support extends beyond the New Patriotic Party.
“Kennedy Agyapong is one particular politician in Ghana whose popularity knows no bounds.
There are people in other political parties such as the NDC, CPP and others who admire and support him and are even asking the NPP to present him as its candidate so they can vote for him,” he said.
He pointed to everyday public spaces as evidence of this popularity. “If you go to the markets, churches and lorry stations, everybody is talking about Kennedy Agyapong,” Nyantakyi stated, adding that “he appears to be the frontrunner in this contest.”
Nyantakyi expressed confidence ahead of the party’s internal process, saying he believes delegates will back Agyapong.
“I am very hopeful that on Saturday, the delegates of the NPP will elect him as the flagbearer so that he can lead the party into the 2028 election and emerge victorious,” he said.
