Kwabena Agyepong Calls for “Clean Contest for a Clean Party” in NPP Flagbearer Race

Accra, Ghana — Aspiring New Patriotic Party (NPP) Flagbearer, Ing. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, has made a clarion call for a campaign marked by decency, fairness, and the core values that have defined the NPP since its founding.

In a statement titled “A Clean Contest for a Clean Party”, the former General Secretary of the NPP emphasized the need for all aspirants, party leaders, and delegates to uphold the highest standards of ethics and decorum as the party gears up to elect its next presidential candidate.

According to Ing. Agyepong, the NPP stands at a defining moment in its history, and the conduct of its internal elections will either reinforce or undermine the party’s credibility in the eyes of the Ghanaian people.

“I am entering this race not as a politician driven by personal ambition, but as a patriot committed to restoring integrity, unity, and a spirit of service to our political tradition,” he stated.

He pledged to run a campaign devoid of insults, inducements, and divisive rhetoric. Instead, he promised an issues-based approach anchored on character, ideas, and vision—a contrast he hopes will signal a new era of principled politics within the party.

Kwabena Agyepong, widely respected for his honesty, transparency, and longstanding loyalty to the NPP, urged fellow aspirants to join him in proving that politics can be both competitive and ethical.

“When the contest is clean, the party is strengthened. And when the party is clean, Ghana wins,” he noted.

The campaign calls on all stakeholders, especially delegates and supporters, to resist the temptations of vote-buying, character assassination, and factionalism. Ing. Agyepong believes that by elevating the tone of the contest, the NPP can reassert its identity as the party of principles, dignity, and hope.

The statement concludes with a rallying cry:

“With Ing. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, the NPP can proudly chart a new course—one where integrity leads, unity reigns, and victory is earned honorably.”

This bold call for decency in politics is likely to resonate with many in the party base and beyond, especially those yearning for a return to core values in Ghana’s increasingly polarized political environment.
