HOT VIDEO: Don’t let them throw dust into your eyes – Ken Agyapong subtly shades Bawumia camp
Former Assin Central MP, Kennedy Agyapong, has appealed to members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to choose him as their presidential candidate for the 2028 elections.
In a viral video from a party event, the former MP dismissed claims that a certain candidate deserves a second chance, without mentioning any names.
“Even Prof Adu Boahene, who broke the culture of silence by facing off with Rawlings, we didn’t make him our candidate for a second time after he lost the 1992 elections. Those who don’t want to speak the truth will tell you that President Kufuor went two times, Akufo-Addo three times. How many times was Adu Boahene made a candidate?
“Today, everybody is enlightened, don’t let them throw dust into your eyes,” he said in Twi.
Agyapong explained that former presidents John Agyekum Kufuor and Nana Akufo-Addo were given another chance because of their performance and limited campaign time.
“The reason we made President Kufuor our candidate for a second time was that he used only three to four months to campaign during the first time. Because of the votes he garnered within the four months, we decided that he should be our candidate again. This is the reason why he won when we made him our candidate again.
“When Akufo-Addo went for the first time, he got 49.3%. The election went into a second round, but he could not win because of Tain,” he said.
You can’t lose over 2 million votes and be given another opportunity to be NPP’s flagbearer… – Kennedy Agyapong jabs Bawumia#GHOneNews #EIBNetwork#GHOneTV #NewsAlert pic.twitter.com/YoOaevk4yu
