WENCHI, BONO REGION – The New Patriotic Party’s 2024 parliamentary candidate for Wenchi in the Bono Region, Kojo Frempong, has called on presidential aspirants and their supporters to prioritise the party’s unity and collective interest over personal ambitions as the party prepares for the 2026 race to become the 2028 presidential candidate of the NPP.
Speaking at the Wenchi Methodist Cathedral during Kennedy Agyapong’s Unity Tour, Frempong urged delegates and party faithful to rally behind whoever emerges as the NPP flagbearer after the primaries on 31 January 2026.
He cautioned against divisive politics and internal rancour, stressing that unity will be crucial if the party is to return to power in the 2028 general election.
“This is the time for us to bury our differences and forgive each other. Let us refrain from insults and remain focused. The interest of the NPP must come first, because without unity, victory in 2028 will be difficult,” Frempong told delegates.
For his part, Kennedy Agyapong, who is on a nationwide tour to promote reconciliation in the party, pledged to prioritise the welfare of grass-roots members should he be elected to lead the NPP into the next election and then power.
He expressed dissatisfaction with how the party’s eight years in power treated its base, particularly in terms of job opportunities.
“I will not allow the suffering of our grass roots to continue. If the NPP is given another mandate and I lead, I will make sure those who sacrifice for the party benefit from it,” Agyapong declared.
He further warned that under his leadership, the next chief executive officer of the Bui Power Authority would be dismissed if they failed to employ more indigenes from the Bono Region.
The Wenchi gathering was in line with Agyapong’s efforts to heal divisions in the NPP as the campaign for the flagbearer primaries gather heat and momentum. Party leaders and supporters in the constituency pledged their commitment to work together to secure victory in Election 2028.
