Kennedy Agyapong Promises to fight corruption ruthlessly and create jobs when elected.
Hon. Kennedy Agyapong, in his bid to become the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has made a commitment to eradicate corruption and its associated activities if he is chosen as the party’s flagbearer and subsequently becomes the President of Ghana.
He emphasized that this strong stance against corruption would promote transparency and hold public officials accountable, leading to the desired progress and development for the people of Ghana.
“I believe in accountability. If God gives me the nod, he (pointing at his Campaign Manager) will be the Chief of Staff. Listen to me very carefully, one strike and he is out. Ghana first, he comes second,” he said.

“If he does anything against this country, I will fire him. That is the only way we can move this country forward. So, can you imagine if I have fired my Chief of Staff. The rest would sit up because even if the Chief of Staff has been fired, what about me the director, what about me the manager? It trickles down and we become disciplined.”
Kennedy Agyapong assured that aside from his commitment to fighting corruption he would make it top of his priority to create jobs for the young people.
He stressed that Ghana’s fertile lands put it in an advantageous position to flourish agriculturally.

“I have visited about 180 constituencies and have come to realise that we as politicians have done a disservice to the nation. With the arable lands, seas, rivers that God has given to us, we are endowed with so many minerals, a lot of opportunities in this country. But, everywhere you go, especially Volta Region, the resources are untapped. And I want Ghanaians to give the opportunity and challenge me that, I will make sure I turn the fortune of this country around” he said.
