NPP flagbearer hopeful Kwabena Agyepong says he is the most capable candidate to unite the New Patriotic Party(NPP), citing his long-standing service under successive party leaders and his ability to connect across generations.
Speaking on JoyNews’ AM Show, Mr Agyepong said his energy, experience, and personal qualities position him uniquely to bridge divides within the party.
“Many people still see me as young. I can connect with the youth; I am very vibrant and articulate. I think I have the charisma to bring the party together, and I think I can be the glue,” he said.
He added that his extensive political experience sets him apart from other candidates and equips him to heal internal divisions.
“Because I have served all our political leaders in the past, I am one who has worked with everyone and has not had any bad word for anyone, so I believe I am best positioned; I am the most viable candidate to weld this party together, to heal the divisions, because they know the heat that is being generated in the party right now by the so-called candidates, but I am not that type,” he explained.
Mr. Agyepong highlighted the range of leaders he has worked with, emphasising his commitment to the party rather than personal ambition.
“I have served Adu Boahene, I have served Kufuor, I have served Akufo-Addo, and in 2023 I served Dr. Bawumia,” he said.
He emphasised that contesting the flagbearer race against Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, someone he had previously served with, “shows my quality as a patriot.”
