Kwasi Kwarteng, spokesperson for Kennedy Agyapong’s campaign, has delivered a strong assessment of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s chances in the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearer race, confidently predicting a decisive victory for Agyapong.
Speaking on Nhyira FM’s Kuro Yi Mu Nsem, Kwarteng claimed that key figures in Bawumia’s camp have abandoned the former Vice President, leaving his campaign increasingly vulnerable.
“All the bigwigs in Bawumia’s camp have bowed out. That gives Kennedy Agyapong a clear advantage,” he said.
He also dismissed the recent Global Info Analytics poll, which placed Kennedy Agyapong’s support at 17 percent, questioning the credibility of the survey’s methodology.
“The Global Info Analytics poll giving Kennedy Agyapong 17% is unreasonable. It could be biased based on their sampling technique,” Kwarteng stressed.
Projecting confidence, he argued that the data itself reflects a worrying trend for Bawumia, whose support he claims is declining, and predicted a first-round victory for Agyapong.
“Dr. Bawumia cannot cross 27% in the flagbearer race. The Global Info Analytics data itself shows his votes dropping by 5% every month. Ken Agyapong will win this flagbearer race with between 62% and 64%,” he asserted.
Kwarteng also highlighted a symbolic benefit for the Ashanti Region if Agyapong wins.
“Ashanti Region could have another First Lady apart from Konadu Agyemang Rawlings. Kennedy Agyapong’s wife is from Asante Mampong,” he said.
Addressing concerns about Agyapong’s fiery personality, Kwarteng urged delegates to focus on leadership capacity rather than temperament.
“We must look beyond Ken Agyapong’s temper and focus on his competence,” he emphasized.
