There are very strong indications that Mr. Kwabena Agyapong, suspended General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) will throw his hat into the race for the leadership of the party.
Close associates hint that he will run for the post of General Secretary against contestants like John Boadu, Acting General Secretary and former Member of Parliament, Kokofu.
Over the last 12 months many party loyalists across the country have demanded the re-reinstatement of Mr. Agyapong, arguing that he has conducted himself very well as a loyal member of the party.
Mr. Agyepong was suspended for allegedly supporting Mr. Paul Afoko, National Chairman of the party who had been suspended for alleged disloyalty.
The wave of suspensions also affected Mr. Sammy Crabbe, vice Chairman, Dr. Nyaho Tamakloe, Founding Member and several local leaders of the party.
Of all the suspended party members, it is only Mr. Agyepong who is actively seeking a comeback.
Late last year there were credible speculations that he was being considered for appointment as the Chief Executive of the Petroleum Commission.
One report claimed that he had been invited by president Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for consultation on that matter.
Last week, 2 News reported that the NPP National Council had tasked three leading members to investigate what was described as Kwabena Agyapong’s recent outbursts.
The three were named as Peter Mac Manu, 2016 campaign Manager, Nana Obiri Boahen, Deputy General Secretary and Osei Kyei-Mensah Bonsu, the Majority leader in parliament.
Kwakye Afreh-Nuamah reported for 3news claimed that Kwabena Agyapong’s comments are “a source of great worry to the party as it undermines the authority of the body which took the decision” to suspend him.
The three member committee has allegedly been tasked to among others make recommendations on how the party should handle the matter and also issue an appropriate public statement on the issue.

Joke of the century. If NPP brings him back I will never vote for them again.
COMING BACK YO WHERE? DO NOT WASTE YOUR TOIME MAN. YOU ARE TOO POWER CONSCIOUS AND EVERY NPP PERSON KNOWS THAT BY NOW. REMEMBER YOUR UTTERANCES IN THE PAST. YOU CAUSED NPP LOSS OF THE OSU SEAT BY SHOWING ALL YOUR PURPORTED GENERAL SECRETARY POWERS AGAINST ALL ADVICE. YOU USED YOUR POEWER TO ORGANISE PARLIAMENTARY CANDIDATE ELECTIONS WITH SPEED AFTER A COURT DECISION WITHOUT GIVING ADEQUATE NOTICE TO ALL PARTIES. ONE PARTY THEN WENT TO COURT AND WON THE CASE FOR ITS CANCELLATION LEADING TO AN INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE SPLITTING THE NPP VOTES. TOU ARE COMING NOWHERE NEAR THE GEN. SECRETARY POST. GO AND CONTINUE YOUR REST. WHO IS THAT BIG MOUTHERD KWESI PRATT?
It is obvious that all those who are undemocratic in the NPP who have their selfish agenda are making it difficult for Kwabena, all because they know what can happen. You sit in your comfort homes and put out these comments thinking all is fine with the party. Go to the grassroots of the party and see how people are aggrieved and calling for Kwabena's comeback, why? Because most of Kwabena's new supporters have realized after the recent elections by the party, it was a failure. They have been comparing Kwabena's performance to that of the current leaders who are just pushing for their interest. As if all that is not enough, some are being threatened not to go to courts on the elections and they see that as nasty and not the NPP way. Let us all wait and how these grassroots men are getting ready for an uprising against the party on Kwabena.
This 'BRUTUS 'can never come back again and will never win against Jon Boadu ; a dedicated ;humble man gentleman who is not arrogant like this idiotic master devious turncoat Kwabena Agyepong; NPP do not want him besides who is going to work with such character ; he shopuld go and stand for a positiuon in the NDC and work for JOn Mahama .
dem comot you for the concert inside, you dey talk say in lef your last toli. ***barred word***. where you dey come for?? otweaaa like that, Next time!!!!
we the npp dont went him.
He can come back, even in the presidential race involving the 17 aspirants, he said he was going to cause an "upset" but we saw his smoothness level.
If you convince the delegates, why not; even if you were not suspended you have been contesting again. Contesting is the best way to appeal against your suspension. The party needs loyalty.
Only Kwasi Pratt will write this. Things that will put NPP in bad light. Oh, Kwasi......But you Mahani is no more. Wait for the SP, he is coming and will all will see your smoothless level!
