Kennedy Agyapong, a New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential candidate hopeful, has boldly stated that from 1992 till now, no one has spent more money in the party than he has.
According to Kennedy Agyapong, he has even been charged with treason for simply defending the NPP.
Speaking on Spear FM in Damongo, Kennedy Agyapong stated, “Abu Jinapor and I have a strong mutual respect and admiration for each other. I remember clearly when Abu Jinapor and Ursula Owusu visited Kantamanto and were unfortunately attacked. At that moment, no one was bold enough to speak out, but I stood up and said what needed to be said.
I came out and told them that if you claim Accra is your stronghold and you are attacking supporters of the NPP, the Ashanti region is also our stronghold, and we will also attack supporters of the NDC. Unfortunately, some media houses twisted my words. I was even charged with treason for simply defending the party I have sacrificed so much for”.
He added, “The money that has been spent on the party since 1992 till now, why is nobody talking about that? Those running with me today, none of them have spent more on the party than I have since 1992. I have spent a lot of money on this party, but that is not even the main issue.
Kennedy Agyapong boldly added, “The real issue is the current state of the country and the condition of the party. The important question is, who is the right person to bring victory to the NPP?
Everywhere I go, the Ghanaians and supporters across the country are calling on me to lead the party. They believe in me, and they know I have what it takes to move the party forward”.
In related news, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, has vowed to relocate key ministries from Accra to various parts of the country.
According to Kennedy Agyapong, his proposal is aimed at shifting the administrative and economic structure of the country by empowering regions to manage major sectors of the economy.
He highlighted that decentralisation should no longer be a political slogan but a thoughtful effort to move government, employment opportunities and infrastructure development to all regions.
The former lawmaker detailed that ministries would be relocated based on the natural strengths of each region.
He revealed plans to move the Ministry of Food and Agriculture to the northern part of the country to take advantage of its fertile lands and livestock potential.
Speaking to supporters during his campaign tour of Salaga North, Mr Agyapong said, “For decades, successive governments have spoken about decentralisation without taking bold steps to make it happen. The result has been unequal development, congestion in Accra, and the slow death of towns that once had economic promise.”
“With the ministry and its agencies located there, the north would attract direct investment in agricultural processing, storage, and mechanisation, creating jobs and reducing poverty,” he said.
He added, “With its mountains, waterfalls, beaches, and rich cultural heritage, the Volta Region has all it takes to become a major tourism and creative arts hub.
“It makes no sense for young people from every region to move to Accra simply because that is where the jobs are. When we move ministries, private sector jobs will follow, and towns that are currently ignored will come alive again.”
Ken Agyapong further explained, “With digital management, video conferencing, and data integration, ministries can function effectively regardless of their location”.
“True unity is built when citizens feel that government works for them no matter where they live,” he noted.
