Dr Stephen Amoah, a member of Kennedy Agyapong’s campaign strategy team, has said the New Patriotic Party (NPP) will bounce back in 2028 under the leadership of the former lawmaker.
According to Dr Stephen Amoah, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) will return to power in the 2028 elections under Kennedy Agyapong.
Speaking on Adom FM’s morning show Dwaso Nsem, Dr Stephen Amoah stated, “After losing the elections, we are still in the process of re-configuring the party. We have admitted our defeat, and now we need to analyse why we lost so we can make the necessary adjustments. The NPP will surely bounce back, and we will win the 2028 elections under Kennedy Agyapong,” he said.
“It’s not about propaganda; the NPP is better than the NDC. Kennedy Agyapong has no incidents of corruption and has done a lot for the country using his own money. So, what makes us think he can’t lead the country? he asked.
For us, it’s about performance, not propaganda, and it is Kennedy Agyapong’s time. He is the only candidate with a well-defined policy specifically for activists and grassroots members, known as Ken’s Grassroots and Welfare Policy,” Dr Amoah added.
In a separate interview, Dr Stephen Amoah confidently stated that the former Assin Central lawmaker, Kennedy Agyapong, is the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) strongest chance of winning the 2028 elections.
According to him, Dr Bawumia is a capable leader, but Kennedy Agyapong stands out as the NPP’s stronger contender for 2028.
He detailed that electoral outcomes in Ghana are not just influenced by government performance.
Speaking on Citi FM’s Eyewitness News on August 26, Stephen Amoah stated, “I don’t think I have questioned the competence of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia before. Never. My issue is about the high probability of NPP winning or losing the election in 2028. It is not about competence. In winning an election in Ghana, it doesn’t depend only on performance.
“There are a number of factors that will actually impact; they correlate with different degrees, and most of them do not necessarily mean you have performed well or not. We have geographical voting. I have analysed these things and I think our chance of winning with Kennedy Agyapong will be higher,” he stated.
Also, Kennedy Agyapong has told the party delegates to try him for the 2028 election.
According to Kennedy Agyapong, if he fails to deliver as a flagbearer and subsequently president, the delegates can remove him after four years and try someone else..
Speaking to party delegates in the Western North Region, Kennedy Agyapong stated, “If contracts were given to our contractors, would we have been standing there when NDC was distributing money, and would we not be doing the same? Please try me, and let’s see. After four years, if I don’t deliver, you can remove me and try another person; if I do well, we continue to build the country and the party.”
“If we had resourced our contractors and made them money, we would not be complaining that NDC was sharing money while we sat and watched,” he said.
Kennedy Agyapong further added, “We need to build the party, and we can only build the party if we resource the party people. We don’t resource them. Someone can say we are not here because of the party.
Someone’s agency, since he left the NDC, has filled over 12 vacancies, and you are sitting here jobless. These same people are coming to you; please don’t sell yourself cheap”.
The NPP aspirant further revealed that the most disgraceful thing was that all five contestants in the New Patriotic Party’s flagbearership paid an extra four million cedis after paying for the filing fees.
He asserted that the party is broke just eight months after leaving office.
“What’s even disgraceful now is that all the aspirants are paying four million for development fees. I took my form for a hundred thousand and filed for five hundred thousand. I was told that there was a deadline, so I had to give them four million”, Mr Agyapong lamented.
Meanwhile, the NPP’s Presidential Elections Committee has confirmed that five aspirants have completed and submitted their nomination forms.
The five include Ing. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, Hon. Ken Ohene Agyapong, Hon. Dr. Bryan Acheampong, H.E. Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, and Hon. Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum.
Also, the NPP will be holding their internal elections on Saturday, January 31, 2026, to select a flagbearer for the 2028 general elections.
