A staunch supporter of Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in Akyem Swedru constituency, Yaw Ansah, has defected to the camp of Assin Central lawmaker Ken Ohene Agyapong.
He says he is now convinced that Mr Ken Ohene Agyapong is the best person to lead the NPP gas flagbearer going into the 2024 general elections.
“The party belongs to all of us, I was in Bawumia’s camp but I have switched camp to Ken Ohene Agyapong,” he said when the campaign team of Mr Ohene Agyapong visited the area.
Also the Asene Manso Akroso (AMA) Constituency Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Mr Sampson Kwadwo Effah and the entire delegates of the constituency have thrown their support behind Mr Ohene Agyapong to become the flagbearer of the NPP.
“I am for Ken, we are for Ken,” he said when Mr Ohene Agyapong visited the constituency as part of his campaign.
He added “Delegates at Akroso, Asene Manso that I lead, we are here to support you, we were waiting for you to come.”
Mr Agyapong is campaigning to be elected the flagbearer of the NPP ahead of the 2024 general elections.
He believes that he is in the position to help the NPP to break the 8-year electoral cycle.
He touted his credentials as a businessman who has established several businesses in the country as one of the reasons he should be voted for because he has the ability to create jobs.
