Addressing journalists after filing his nomination, Agyapong promised to reduce unemployment in the country if given the nod.
“As a Member of Parliament for the past 23 years, I have to admit that the challenge of the government and successive governments is unemployment. And therefore, I have taken it upon myself to make sure I reduce unemployment in this country, I want those of you watching to believe in me that whatever I say, by the Grace of God and with good health, I will deliver,” Agyapong said.
