Ing. Kwabena Agyapong, an aspiring presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has slammed Ken Agyapong despite being the biggest beneficiary of the Akufo-Addo government.
According to Ing. Kwabena Agyapong, Ken Agyapong was the biggest beneficiary of the Akufo-Addo government in terms of contracts.
He highlighted that Ken Agyapong, after benefiting from the Akufo-Addo government, goes round critising him, the former president, to get the base against his government.
Speaking in a radio interview, Ing. Kwabena Agyapong highlighted, “All those making noise, the one going around claiming the government did not look after its people, Ken Agyapong’s wife was a chairperson of the Ghana Shippers Council, let’s call a spade a spade, he himself was the chair of Ghana gas and everybody is aware of the amount of contracts in the eight years of Akufo-Addo that went to him”.
He added. “Some went to his family, this is the same person; instead of thanking Akufo-Addo, he is walking around criticising his government, trying to get the base of the party against the government, but you were the biggest beneficiary”.
Meanwhile, all five New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential aspirants on January 22, 2026, signed a peace pact ahead of the party’s primaries on January 31, 2026.
Kennedy Agyapong – Former Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin Central, Dr Bryan Acheampong – MP for Abetifi and former Minister for Agriculture, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia – Former Vice President, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum – Former Minister of Education, Mr Kwabena Agyepong – Former Presidential Press Secretary and NPP General Secretary, all signed the peace pact.
The five aspirants committed to unity, respect for the electoral process, and support for the eventual winner ahead.
In related news, Ofosu Asamoah, the former Member of Parliament for Kade and campaign manager for Kwabena Agyepong, has publicly declared his support for the former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
According to the former Kwabena Agyapong’s campaign manager, in life, one must not embark on a journey that will take you nowhere.
Ofosu Asamoah made this announcement during a campaign event in the Eastern Region.
Speaking to NPP delegates on Monday, December 1, 2025, Ofosu Asamoah stated, “If you see me here, don’t be surprised. I am the same Ofosu Asamoah you know. My connection with Dr Bawumia isn’t new; I just chose not to back him earlier. But sometimes change is necessary”.
“In life, you don’t embark on a journey that is taking you nowhere. You need a clear vision to know where you are heading. I was a campaign manager in Kwabena Agyepong’s team, but after much assessment, I have decided to be part of this team,” he added.
