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.
Also, Bishop Sam Owusu has said that Kennedy Agyapong will win the New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential primary polls scheduled for January 31, 2026 and lead the party as its flagbearer in the 2028 general elections.
According to Bishop Sam Owusu, Kennedy Agyapong will secure about 57.7% to win the NPP’s flagbearer.
The man of God revealed that President Mahama has been ordained to lay a solid foundation, but Kennedy Agyapong is the chosen one to build on and lead an industrial revolution in the country.
In a viral video, Bishop Sam Owusu stated, “Hear me, church, hear me and pray for him so that the mercies of God and the hand of God will continue to bring him to that place.
During the COVID time, I saw the man Kennedy Agyapong leading their party, and last month I mentioned it. And today, the Lord said I should mention it again. Church, hear me and pray for him.”
“I saw over 1 million young men that God has used him to lead, following him,” he added.
The man of God emphatically prophesied that Kennedy Agyapong will secure about “57.7%” of the votes to emerge the winner.
“I kept on prophesying about Kennedy Agyapong. It’s because I saw over 1 million young men that God has used him to lead them, and all of them are doing business,” he stressed.
