Kennedy Agyapong, former MP for Assin Central, has announced his intention to contest the next NPP flagbearership race despite withdrawing from the party’s “Thank You” tour due to security threats.
He cited a violent incident at a party event in Kumasi as a reason for his withdrawal.
“But we will also regroup ourselves and at the appropriate time, we will come out with any help that the party can provide, or enhance my chances of winning the candidacy. I am using this opportunity to tell you that I am going to contest,” he declared.
“I will contest, and they should be ready. Nobody can stop me from contesting because we have contributed to the party right from the start.” He told journalists.
