Member of Parliament for Assin Central Constituency and leading member of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kennedy Agyapong, has stated emphatically that he is not selfish, and will go all out and campaign for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia to lead the party to a historic victory on December 7.
He stated that losing the NPP presidential primaries to Dr Bawumia doesn’t mean he should stay back, fold his arms, and watch as his beloved NPP is seeking to retain political power.
Addressing some NPP members and sympathizers at Abossey Okai in the Greater Accra Region, he urged all aggrieved NPP members to return to the battlefield and campaign for the party.
“I will be a selfish person if I don’t step out to campaign for Dr Bawumia”, Kennedy Agyapong, who was with Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh aka ‘Napo’, the NPP Vice Presidential Candidate, indicated.
“If you are in a political party and you go to an election and lose, you don’t leave the party because you didn’t win. It will make you a bad loser, so I’m appealing to all our peeved members to return to the NPP.
“I’m using myself as an example, I contested the NPP presidential election and lost, but I’m here campaigning for Dr Bawumia, who won the polls, to lead our great party to victory”, Kennedy Agyapong stated.
According to him, if he doesn’t step out to campaign for the NPP, it would be an indication that his “Ghana First” campaign slogan was deceptive, saying “It will mean my Ghana First slogan is about myself”.
The Assin Central NPP lawmaker also used the occasion to particularly appeal to all aggrieved NPP members in the Abossey Okai area to forgive and forget about the past and rather unite and work for the party.
“If you see me this evening on a campaign platform, it should motivate NPP members in Abossey Okai, who lost a contest or think the party did not treat them well, to learn from me and forgive and forget”.
Kennedy Agyapong, a renowned member of the across the country, also charged NPP members to stay united and “go house-to-house and campaign for the party to win the presidential and parliamentary elections”.
