Former New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer contender Kennedy Agyapong, has noted that his recent visit to Kumasi for the unveiling of Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh also known as Napo as the running mate for the party’s flagbearer for the upcoming December 7, 2024, general elections, has caused dissatisfaction among some members of the party.
“Some people were upset with me during my recent visit to Kumasi,” he said in a post on X.
However, he has informed such critics that he does not regret his decision since his loyalty to the NPP remains his priority, even against his personal sentiments.
“I want to remind my supporters that loyalty to the party supersedes personal sentiments. As long as I remain in the NPP, I will actively participate in the party’s activities. If you want to be a leader, you must first be a servant of the people,” he added.
Some users on X are however not pleased with the recent comment made by Mr Agyapong.
“We thought Ghana was your focus! So so disappointing!!!,” a user said. Another wrote, “From the look of things sorry sir loyalty to the party supersedes Ghana interest.”
Kennedy Agyapong arrived in Kumasi to attend the official unveiling of Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh.
Mr Agyapong, who represents Assin Central in Parliament, was greeted with a rousing welcome from enthusiastic party supporters upon his arrival at the Prempeh I International Airport.
A video captured on social media showcased the electric atmosphere as supporters, filled with excitement and admiration, mobbed Mr Agyapong and his wife as they made their way through the airport.
