NPP Communications Team Member, Kwasi Kwarteng, has launched a blistering assessment of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s chances in the party’s flagbearer race, boldly predicting a decisive victory for Kennedy Agyapong.
According to him, key figures in Bawumia’s camp have deserted the former Vice President, leaving his campaign weaker by the day.
“All the big wigs in Bawumia’s camp have bowed out. That gives Kennedy Agyapong a clear advantage,” Kwarteng stated.
Speaking on Nhyira FM’s morning show, Mr. Kwasi Kwarteng dismissed the recent Global Info Analytics polls that pegged 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,” he stressed.
Mr. Kwarteng argued that the data itself reflects a worrying trend for Dr. Bawumia, whose support is sliding. Projecting confidence, he predicted a clear 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 flag bearer race with between 62% and 64%,” he stressed.
Kwarteng also highlighted what he described as a symbolic benefit to 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.
On concerns about Agyapong’s fiery personality, he urged delegates to focus on leadership capacity rather than temperament.
“We must look beyond Ken Agyapong’s temper and focus on his competence,” said Mr. Kwarteng.
