I was shocked - Dan Kwaku Yeboah reacts to Ken Agyapong's numbers in Bantama Constituency
Kwaku Yeboah is impressed by the performance of Kennedy Agyapong in the polls which saw Bawumia emerge victorious as the presidential candidate of the NPP. Kwaku Yeboah was also stunned that Kennedy Agyapong managed to garner an impressive number of votes in the primaries. Originally, Kennedy Agyapong didn’t have a presidential ambition so for him to make those numbers is impressive. I was shocked Bantama is NPP’s Florida so for him to have gone head-to-head with Bawumia in Bantama was strange. In the Bantama constituency, Kennedy Agyapong managed 404 votes which is 18 votes less than what Bawumia accrued.

Ken Agyapong: The Drowning Presidential Hopeful Desperately Clinging onto a Leaf for Survival
A lightweight like Ken, being prevailed upon to abandon his ill-conceived Presidential aspirations; by who? It is crystal clear that the peace loving and respectful Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, is the nightmare of the warmonger-cum-disrespectful and arrogant Ken Agyapong. The brighter way forward is to vote massively for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia on Saturday, November 4th, 2023, to avoid any uncertain future for our country. According to Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, “it is possible for the NPP to win the December 7th, 2024 Presidential election”, and subsequently retire John Mahama from the political scene. If Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is too decent to descend into the gutter with Ken Agyapong, some admirers and supporters of Dr. Bawumia who are streetwise, will not only match Ken Agyapong boot-for-boot, but prove to be streets ahead of him.
