Member of Parliament for Nhyiaeso, Dr. Stephen Amoah, has accused some of his colleague MPs who recently declared support for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia of double standards.
He claimed that some of them funded Kennedy Agyapong’s 2026 campaign with car donations.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, Dr. Amoah said the recent endorsement by 63 New Patriotic Party (NPP) MPs in favour of Dr. Bawumia is “psychological propaganda” meant to influence public perception ahead of the party’s presidential primaries.
“If you want to be elected into power, you need to be honest and uphold integrity. They are claiming that more than 60 MPs support Bawumia, but only about 20 were present at the press conference. The deception is too much; they have realized they would lose the election.
“They want to use psychological warfare, but we will see the results on election day. Some of the MPs who have written their names on the list have bought cars for Ken Agyapong’s team. The politics of lies, deception, and propaganda are in the past. Ghanaians are awake now; that won’t change their minds about who to vote for. They are clearly showing that they have lost the elections,” he said.
He added that the move undermines the integrity of the party’s internal democracy and violates the secrecy of voting.
“I dare them to conduct a secret ballot with the 63 MPs, and if Bawumia wins, I will stop supporting Kennedy Agyapong. This is psychological propaganda. Ken has already won the election. I know someone whose name was forcefully added to the list. What they are doing is even against the law by writing people’s names to join a camp. Voting is private, which means they cannot even rule the country. The secrecy of our vote is a legal mandate, and what the parliamentarians are doing is against the law,” the MP added.
On Thursday, 63 NPP Members of Parliament publicly declared their support for Dr. Bawumia, describing him as the most capable candidate to lead the party to victory in 2028.
The group, led by Mampong MP Kwaku Ampratwum-Sarpong, insisted that their support was voluntary and based on confidence in Dr. Bawumia’s leadership.
