Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer aspirant, has said politics is no longer attractive.
The former lawmaker expressed his disappointment with the current state of politics in Ghana, adding that he wouldn’t advise his children to pursue a career in it.
According to Kennedy Agyapong, many politicians do not speak the truth, which has eroded public trust in them, making politics unattractive.
Speaking at the National Emerging Leaders Economic Forum on Monday, September 22, 2025, Kennedy Agyapong stated, “Politics is no longer attractive, and I would never advise any of my children to go into it”.
Kennedy Agypong further called on Ghanaian youth to take charge of their lives.
He added, “The youth are overdependent on government for their survival; they need to take charge of their lives”.
Kennedy Agyapong also advised Ghanaian youths they cannot depend on the government alone to become rich or successful.
Mr Agyapong made these remarks while talking about his plans for the youth, focusing on creating an enabling environment that will reduce the youth’s dependence on the government.
According to Kennedy Agyapong, he would ensure that the youths who want to go into business will have startup capital.
Mr Agyapong detailed, “As a businessman, I have come to realise that the youth are not given opportunities. When you talk of youth unemployment, all those agencies, unless the government creates an enabling environment, so that the youths can take advantage of it.
The youths are overdependent on the government; no youth depending on the government alone can survive or be a rich or successful person”.
He added, “You have to take your destiny into your own hands and make sure that you take advantage of what is going on and move ahead; don’t wait. What I will also be doing is to find ways for the youths to have startup capital for Ghanaian youths who want to venture into business”.
Meanwhile, 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.
