Kennedy Agyapong, the Member of Parliament for Assin Central, has urged Ghanaians to reject the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the upcoming elections, describing it as a dangerous political party.
He made these remarks while addressing traders at the Kejetia Market, emphasizing the NPP’s commitment to Ghana’s development.
Mr Agyapong dismissed claims that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has lost its connection with the people of the Ashanti Region, a traditional stronghold for the party.
He pointed to the enthusiastic reception that the NPP’s flagbearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, received during his recent visit to the region as evidence of the party’s sustained popularity.
He warned against supporting the NDC, labeling it as “dangerous” and urged voters to remember the NDC’s past governance.
“As a businessman and politician, I understand both politics and business. I acknowledge the current hardships, but when you vote, remember that the NDC is not a viable option—they are very dangerous. Be cautious,” he warned.
He highlighted the achievements of the Akufo-Addo-Bawumia administration, particularly the implementation of the Free Senior High School (SHS) policy, which has significantly benefited many students.
Mr Agyapong emphasized that even in developed countries, governments do not provide uniforms for students, highlighting the government’s efforts in education.
He urged voters to recognize the progress made under the current administration and to support Dr Bawumia in the upcoming elections.
“Under the Akufo-Addo-Bawumia government, we’ve covered fees under Free SHS and even provided uniforms for your children.
“Even in developed countries, governments don’t buy uniforms for students. So, I urge all of you to recognise that even developed countries are facing economic crises. Don’t be deceived by false promises. Remember the NDC’s past governance. Let’s all support Bawumia,” he said.
