The Assin Central Member of Parliament, Kennedy Agyapong, said the only way the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) can claim electoral victory is if it acknowledges its own shortcomings.

Kennedy Agyapong also urged the party faithful to unite and support the candidacy of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the NPP flagbearer.
He said that without a united front, no amount of campaigning would secure the party's victory on December 7, 2024.
“We are all not going to sit back; we will all support Dr Bawumia to win,” Kennedy Agyapong advised.
NPP-UK donates £1.2 million to support Bawumia
Meanwhile, the NPP in the UK and the Young Executives Forum have reportedly raised £1.2 million to support Dr Mahamudu Bawumia's campaign for the 2024 election campaign.
The amount is said to have come from cash and pledges at a fundraising dinner dance in London on June 22, 2024. The funds have not been independently verified.
Addressing guests at the dinner, Bawumia expressed appreciation for the support and reiterated his intent to break the eight.
“…I think that after talking about our record and talking about our vision for this country, minds have changed dramatically, and NPP is in the position to win the 2024 elections," Bawumia said.
The NPP expects its election campaign to ramp up between July and November.
