Kennedy Agyapong, the 2028 flagbearer hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has shared one major strategy he would implement during the campaign for the primaries.

In a video on X, Kennedy Agyapong said that he will not get angry or respond to provocations from his opponents.

Kennedy Agyapong explained that most of his opponents say or do things to get him angry and later claim that he is easily angered. However, he said he would prove them wrong this time.

“Anyone who says they are coming to speak to annoy Kennedy Agyapong will not succeed. This is because we have seen the solution to their problem. They have no message. They only want evidence for their claim that Kennedy Agyapong is easily angered. Even if someone tries to get me angry, I will not mind the person.”

Kennedy Agyapong said this when he addressed guests at his 65th birthday celebration in Shiashie, Accra.

Kennedy Agyapong said he is the best person to lead Ghana, considering his track record as a private businessperson. He also used the opportunity to declare his intention to contest in the NPP flagbearer race.

“We need someone with ideas. If I am able to create employment for Ghanaians as a private person, then you can imagine what I will do when I become President of the country. These are the messages and examples people don’t want to hear. But that is the truth. I am officially declaring on my birthday that I will contest for the NPP’s flagbearership ahead of the 2028 election.”

Kennedy said he will win the NPP flagbearer contest no matter when it is held.

“I am certain that no matter what happens in the NPP flagbearer election, I will win. So nobody should be worried. Let us determine to work hard so that Kennedy Agyapong will lead the party. After winning the flagbearer race, I will make sure I win the general election.”
