A Lecturer at Central University, Dr. Benjamin Otchere-Ankrah, has lauded a presidential hopeful for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Boakye Agyarko, for his remarkable potential to lead Ghana.
Dr. Otchere-Ankrah believes that Agyarko possesses the necessary attributes to become the country’s president, yet laments his lack of massive support from the public.
Speaking to the media, Dr. Otchere-Ankrah emphasized the significant role of a strong and extensive supporter base in propelling a candidate to the pinnacle of political leadership.
He pointed out that, in the realm of politics, the possession of a large following often proves more decisive than rigid adherence to principles.
Having a substantial following is key for a candidate’s success; principles matter less in politics. Despite his remarkable wisdom and vision, it’s astonishing that Boakye Agyarko still lacks supporters.
“If we consider leadership, Boakye Agyarko possesses charisma and profound wisdom that’s truly impressive,” he added.
Dr. Otchere-Ankrah commended Agyarko’s exceptional wisdom and visionary thinking, expressing his surprise at the relatively modest number of supporters rallying behind him.
The lecturer noted that Agyarko’s charisma and depth of insight set him apart, making him an exceptional candidate for leadership.
When considering potential leaders for the nation, Dr. Otchere-Ankrah pointedly highlighted Agyarko’s outstanding qualities.
He characterized Mr Agyarko as a charismatic figure who exudes wisdom, leaving a profound impact whenever he speaks.
Dr. Otchere-Ankrah commended Mr Agyarko for his remarkable leadership potential and urged him to continue sharing his vision and wisdom with the public, in hopes that his message will resonate more widely and eventually gain the support it deserves.
Mr Agyarko who served as the former Minister of Energy, has claimed to be the sole candidate capable of ending the party’s eight-year political cycle.
According to him, the only party that has better plans for the country is the NPP.
On July 12, 2023, the party’s vetting committee granted clearance to all 10 presidential aspirants for the upcoming special Electoral College election.
The NPP on August 26, 2023, will hold a special delegates conference to choose five out of the ten candidates for the November 4, 2023 presidential primary.
