In his address, he entreated Ghanaians, especially NPP members, to embrace peace before, during, and after the elections, cautioning against violence, bitterness, and division.
He explained that leadership comes from God and must be based on unity instead of chaos. Kennedy Agyapong added that, irrespective of the outcome of the presidential primary, national and party unity must be maintained.
"As people, as a party, we are entering an important election season. Our prayer tonight is simple: Peace before the election, peace during the election, and peace after the election. No violence, no bitterness, no division. Leadership comes from God, not from chaos. When God leads, peace follows. Whatever the outcome of the elections, our prayer is for unity. Elections will pass, but unity must remain. When we stay united, we move forward together as one people."
The NPP flagbearer hopeful said the Ken's National Praise 2026 event was meant to acknowledge God’s mercy and protection over Ghana and its people despite the hardships of the past year.
