Kennedy Agyaponf Ohene Agyapong, a candidate for New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, has made it clear that his participation and efforts have a significant role in the party’s election triumphs.
The Assin Central MP stated in an interview with Tamale FM, which 1Family Radio heard, that even though he was given money to drop out of the competition, there is no way that he would leave the party.
He is adamant that the NPP’s prospects of winning the elections would be significantly diminished if he did not participate. Winning elections would be severely compromised.
“Without me, the NPP can’t win elections. Do you know how many people are begging me? You know, the money that they’ve offered me to step down?’’Ken Agyapong asked.
“If I step down, we will lose. With the sacrifices the party people have made, I cannot selfishly take that amount of money and leave them to their fate,’’ he said.
Kennedy Agyappong highlighted how their achievements are interconnected and voiced his reservations about the party, perhaps marginalizing him.
“How can NPP dump me? If they dump me, they will go into opposition. We all need each other.’’
He went on to express his resolve to avoid being taken advantage of and abandoned by the party—a fate that has happened to others in past times.
“You see, NPP will always want to use you and dump you. I will not allow them to dump me anymore; I won’t do it. I will not sacrifice for the NPP for my children, my family, and generations to be humiliated,’’ he added.
