Kennedy Agyapong, a flagbearer hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has expressed confidence in his preparedness to lead Ghana as president.
Speaking to the media following his vetting in Accra on Tuesday, September 23, Agyapong said the party recognizes his capability and commitment.
“I was prepared. I believe I answered all the questions, and they know I’m ready to be president of this country,” he stated.
According to Agyapong, the vetting panel focused on his motivation for seeking the presidency and his vision for both Ghana and the NPP.
He outlined several strategies aimed at addressing national challenges and strengthening the party’s future.
“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 described the vetting process as respectful and constructive, noting that while the questions were rigorous, they were fair and non-confrontational.
“They didn’t antagonize me because they know my potential already. But they asked tangible and reasonable questions. They were not hostile to me,” he added.
Agyapong also emphasized his longstanding loyalty to the NPP, suggesting that his deep roots in the party contributed to the smooth vetting experience.
“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 said.
As the NPP gears up for the 2028 general elections, Kennedy Agyapong remains one of the leading contenders for the party’s presidential ticket.
