A netizen on a social media platform X has reacted to an alleged report claiming to be the results of the just-ended NPP flagbearership vetting.

There are rumours alleging that Dr Bryan Acheampong scored the lowest score in the NPP flagbearership vetting.

According to the report by News360, Dr Bryan Acheampong secured only 50 per cent, Kennedy Agyapong secured 53 per cent, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum secured 59 per cent, with Dr Bawumia and Ing Kwabena Agyepong tying on the same point, 72 per cent.

The netizen, identified as Mr Irish on X, fired shots at Kennedy Ayapong and Dr Bryan Acheampong, labelling them as tribal and religious bigots fighting for the last spot.

He wrote, “The tribal and religious bigots are fighting for the last spot.

You no get message, dem open floor give you say come and justify why going on religious and tribal lines will help you win, that one too turn issue?

Bryan is out there fighting his subordinates”.  

In related news, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the former Vice President, has said his team are not taking anything for granted.

Speaking to journalists after his vetting, Dr Bawumia emphasised that they are going to campaign to sell their ideas and sell the NPP to secure his bid as presidential candidate of the NPP.

Dr Bawumia further expressed satisfaction with his vetting and hopes the committee is satisfied with his answers.

The NPP aspirant stated, “We have had very fruitful discussions. They have asked many questions, and I have answered those questions. So I am very satisfied with my vetting, and I pray that everything is okay. I hope the committee is as satisfied as I am”.

“I want to thank the rank and file of this party, and I think that from vetting we are heading straight into the country to campaign,” he noted.

Dr Bawumia added, “We are not taking anything for granted. We have to campaign, sell our ideas and sell the NPP so that we can secure this nomination and proceed for the 2028 election”.

Also, Kennedy Agyapong, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, has broken his silence after facing the party’s vetting committee.

Mr Agyapong faced the vetting committee on Tuesday, September 23, in Accra.

The outspoken politician and businessman highlighted that he did not face any serious questions as he was fully prepared.

Speaking after his vetting in Accra on Tuesday, September 23, Kennedy Agyapong stated, “I was prepared. I believe I answered all the questions and they know I’m ready to be president of this country”.

“They really wanted to know why I want to be president and my vision for the country, as well as the party. So I enumerated a couple of points on how I’m going to address some problems,” he explained.

He added, “They didn’t antagonise me because they know my potential already. But they asked tangible and reasonable questions. They were not hostile to me,” he added.

“They know I’ve been a through-and-through party member for so long, so I didn’t face any serious questions. I was free to answer their questions,” he noted.

The NPP will be holding their internal elections on Saturday, January 31, 2026, to select a flagbearer for the 2028 general elections.
