Concerns have been aroused by remarks made recently by Hon. Kenedy Agyapong, MP for Assin Central and potential NPP presidential candidate.
He made the audacious claim that he is the only one who can save the Party, which he wants to lead, after the general elections of 2024. This assertion not only raises red flags, but also erodes the trust of party members and supporters.
It is crucial that the NPP evaluate how such comments will affect their chances of winning elections and take the required steps to remedy the situation. The statement made by Hon. Kenedy Agyapong is not only depressing, but it also shows that he has little confidence in the party's prospects of success in the future elections.
It is anticipated that he would instill confidence and mobilize support for the NPP as a prospective presidential contender.
His remarks, on the other hand, have had the opposite effect and have raised skepticism and unease among party members and sympathizers. Such unfavorable comments only serve to weaken the NPP's position at this pivotal time and drive its supporters apart.
The NPP leadership must handle this matter immediately and categorically. They need to recommit to winning the general elections in 2024 and rebuild people's faith in the party's capacity to keep its commitments.
The remarks made by Hon. Kenedy Agyapong not only damage the party's chances of winning elections, but also cast doubt on his own leadership qualities. To ensure that such divisive and defeatist discourse is not accepted inside their ranks, the NPP must act decisively.
