Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong has expressed interest to contest for the flagbearership of the party when nominations are officially opened by party executives.
Kennedy Agyapong, NPP Member of Parliament for Assin-North who spoke to HELLO FM’s king Edward Thursday said he will not miss picking forms to contest if all the agitations of Nana Addo leading the party for the 2016 elections does not cease.
He added that it is about time the party hierarchy sat down to discuss the way forward and focus on how they can win elections rather than creating unnecessary confusion in the party; looking for who leads the party in 2016.
“There are many issues that need to be solved before we push for a flagbearer. What’s important is for us to be united. There is a canker eating up the party… if you’ve gone for an election, you sit and analyze the situation – what caused the defeat and what can we do to change whatever happened? But all we are doing is lobbying for one person… while the problem remains unsolved. We need to address the problems in the party otherwise we will always be defeated,” he said.
