Flagbearer aspirant of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, has appealed to delegates to try him as the party prepares to elect its presidential candidate.

Addressing party members in the Western North Region, the former Assin Central MP argued that if the NPP had adequately resourced its contractors, they would not have been left idle while the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) distributed money to supporters.

“If contracts were given to our contractors, would we have been standing there when NDC was distributing money, and would we not be doing the same? Please try me, and let’s see. After four years, if I don’t deliver, you can remove me and try another person; if I do well, we continue to build the country and the party,” he stated.

Kennedy Agyapong further stressed that empowering local contractors is critical to strengthening the economy and preventing the NPP from being outclassed by the opposition in grassroots mobilisation.

“If we had resourced our contractors and made them money, we would not be complaining that NDC was sharing money while we sat and watched,” he added.

The outspoken lawmaker assured delegates that he has the vision and courage to implement policies that will empower Ghanaians economically, promising to prove his worth if given the mandate to lead the party into the 2028 general elections.
