Heartbreaking as loayal George Opoku Amponsah leaves Ken Agyapong for Bawumia
George Opoku Amponsah, a former key member of Kennedy Agyapong’s campaign team, has officially announced his departure from the team to support what he calls the “right candidate” to lead the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
George Opoku Amponsah played a significant role during the NPP’s 2024 presidential primaries, particularly helping Kennedy Agyapong gain strong support in constituencies such as Juaben and Ejisu. Despite Kennedy Agyapong eventually losing to Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, George’s efforts, especially on the communications front, were notable and widely acknowledged.
In a statement confirming his exit, George said:
“I regret to inform you of my decision to withdraw as a member of Team Ken Communications, effective immediately.”
While he didn’t go into detail about why he made the decision, information from sources close to the team suggest his departure may have been influenced by Kennedy Agyapong’s alleged disregard for others and internal disagreements within the team.
George now intends to throw his weight behind Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the man he believes is best suited to lead the party moving forward.
