New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, Kennedy Agyapong, says the party recognises his readiness to lead Ghana as president.
Speaking to reporters after his vetting in Accra on Tuesday, September 23, the outspoken politician and businessman expressed satisfaction with his performance before the panel.
“I was prepared. I believe I answered all the questions, and they know I’m ready to be president of this country,” he stated.
Agyapong revealed that much of the vetting focused on his motivation for seeking the presidency and his vision for both Ghana and the NPP. “They really wanted to know why I want to be president and my vision for the country, as well as the party. So I enumerated a couple of points on how I intend to address some problems,” he explained.
He described the interview as fair and respectful, noting that while the questions were challenging, they were not confrontational. “They didn’t antagonise me because they know my potential already. But they asked tangible and reasonable questions. They were not hostile,” he added.
Highlighting his long-standing service to the NPP, Agyapong stressed that his loyalty and track record made the process smoother. “They know I’ve been a through-and-through party member for so long, so I didn’t face any serious questions. I was free to answer their questions,” he said.
Kennedy Agyapong remains one of the leading contenders in the upcoming NPP flagbearer race, as the party gears up for the 2028 general elections.
