Kennedy Agyapong, a New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, has confidently said he would serve Ghana with his heart and honesty.
According to Ken Agyapong, he will arrest his own child if he steals state funds.
He highlighted that if he would arrest his own children who steal state funds, what of ministers who steal.
Ken Agyapong stressed that because of his principled nature, other NPP bigwigs are against his bid to lead the party.
Speaking to NPP delegates during his campaign runs, Kenned Agyapong stated, “If my own child steals state funds, I will arrest him; my children already know of my attitude, so they will not even come close to the state to become president son and come and disgrace me. I will arrest my own child.
So if I arrest my own son, when you are minister, and you make a mistake, what will I do to you? That is the reason why they do not want to vote for me. When that is not done, Ghana will never succeed.
When everyone comes, it’s his family and friends, and they come for their share, and they leave with the country left to go backwards. I am promising you, I kennedy Agyapong, I will serve this country with my heart and honesty”.
Also, Ken Agyapong has pledged to beat Ghana’s first president, Kwame Nkrumah’s record.
Speaking during a radio interview, Kennedy Agyapong stated, “If Ghanaians give me the opportunity, I aim to beat Dr Kwame Nkrumah’s record because he is my role model. When Dr Kwame Nkrumah was president, Ghana’s population was 4 million. Look at his vision; the things he achieved are still relevant today with the population of 33.6 million.
When you look at the lands Nkrumah acquired for the Universities and Secondary Schools, if you go to Korle Bu, the land he acquired, Nkrumah was very great. Although I am a UP member but I was always telling the truth for nine years of Dr Kwame Nkrumah, what he did for Ghana, I want to beat that record.
I am going to go by development, the biggest challenge in this country now is unemployment, especially youth unemployment, and if that can be reduced. I am not saying we will eliminate unemployment completely because there are some people, even if you give them work, they will not do it”.
Meanwhile, a latest poll by the Global Info Analytics in December 2025 has revealed that the former Assin Central legislator, Kennedy Agyapong, has gained huge momentum in the NPP presidential race.
According to the Global Info Analytics, Kennedy Agyapong has moved from 18 per cent to 31 per cent in the NPP race.
However, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the former Vice President, remains in the lead with 45% in December.
The poll revealed that Bawumia led the race with 45 per cent, Ken Agyapong with 31 per cent, with 11 per cent undisclosed and 9 per cent undecided.
The survey, which was conducted through a random computer-assisted telephone interview of about 3000 delegates, revealed Ken Agyapong made 13% gains on his November output, while Dr Bawumia moved closer to the 50% by 2 per cent.
With a little over a month to the NPP primary, the former Vice President will require at least 6% of the undecided votes.
However, for Kennedy Agyapong to clinch victory, he will be required to secure nearly all the 19 plus percent undecided and undisclosed votes.
