The Minister for Parliamentary Affairs and majority leader in Ghana’s Parliament, Mr. Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, says, “I will be surprised if my colleague Kennedy Agyapong gets even 20% in the presidential primaries.”
The Majority Leader, who also doubles as a Member of Parliament for Suame Constituency in the Ashanti region, said this when predicting the probable outcome of Saturday’s New Patriotic Party (NPP) Presidential Primaries, particularly regarding Kennedy Ohene Agyapong’s performance.
More than 200,000 delegates are expected to decide on four candidates as the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) chooses a flagbearer for the 2024 general election on November 4, 2023.
But the leader of the Majority side in Parliament, who took his turn on M’abato, a current affairs political show on Akoma FM, stated, “Kennedy Agyapong would not even get 15% in the Ashanti Region.”
According to Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s economic acumen is unquestionable, and he is the right person to change the economic situation.
Some polls have put the Vice President ahead with a colossal percentage.
