"All is not lost,” Kennedy Agyapong has told his coordinators, and supporters at a showdown Thanksgiving party held on Saturday.
The maverick Member of Parliament for Assin Central constituency polled a total of 71,996 votes, representing 37.41% to come second at the recently held presidential primaries of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Political pundits who have been reacting to this say Kennedy Agyapong has proven “he’s a force to reckon with in the party”
Speaking to his coordinators at the Thanksgiving party, Mr Agyapong said “We’ve made a statement”
“He who fights and runs away lives to fight another day…you’re now relevant in the party because we control more than one-third of the party; there’s nothing they can do without consulting us…we’ve made a statement
Don’t be sad…all is not lost. One day one day what God has ordained will surely come to pass. It is only Kennedy Agyepong who throws a big party after losing”
“I appreciate all the efforts you put in…” he added.

ASHANTIS MPS TRIBALISM HAS DESTROYED THE ASHANTI REGION. NOW OTUMFUOR IS BEGGING PEOPLE TO DONATE MONEY FOR KATH HOSPITAL WHILE 4 HOSPITALS IN ASHANTI REGION STAYED CLOSE BECAUSE NDC BUILT IT. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ASHANTIS. 7 YEARS IN POWER NOT EVEN ONE DEVELOPMENT OR PROJECTS IN ASHANTI REGION BY NPP GOVERNMENT BUT OTUMFUOR STAYS QUITE AND INSTEAD OF QUESTIONING THE GOVERNMENT TO RENOVATE KUMFO ANOKYE HOSPITAL AFTER COLLECTING MONEY FROM SAME HOSPITAL FOR 7 YEARS OTUMFUOR IS ASKING ASHANTIS TO PAY FOR THE RENOVATION NOT THE GOVERNMENT BECAUSE HIS FRIEND IS NANA ADDO. THE MONEY OTUMFUOR SPENT THIS YEAR ON HIS BIRTHDAY WITH NANA ADDO IN UK CAN RENOVATE THE WHOLE ASHANTI REGION HOSPITALS.
He is not a serious politician. He can never be a flag bearer of NPP Such a loud greedy person can not considered for any presidential seat Nobody can work with him. Do you know the percentage Kuffour, Akuffo Addo, Allan had in similar elections? None of them bragged as you are doing. You raised yourself beyond the party and it will affect you big time
Kenedy, listen to me. You didn't fight and run away as you trying to convince us. You lost the election to Dr Bawumia, period. You do not control 30% of NPP as many will not vote for you next time.
Well said. From day one you have been making a case for the party's human beings by chanting ' build the party people, build them, build them ". Unfortunately the appointees refused to heed your advice and decided to build themselves. At time came for them to look for human beings and they immediately realized that human beings are more powerful than money, lands, cars etc. If it were about money's or power, Bawumia has it at least for now. He was running round the whole country in a bus looking for human beings. Some of the votes you ( Kennedy Agyapong) got were "pain and anger " from some delegates to show the appointees that they don't control anybody. Infact Bawumia was not the target but some of the appointees who were campaigning for him. To those expressing surprise as to the number of votes Kennedy Agyapong got in their constituencies should ask themselves " what have i done for the people of my constituency as a minister, MMDCE, CEO or presidential errands boy based on which i thought my constituents should have voted 100% for my preferred choice " . They should ask themselves. Why not let the money and government lands you are grabbing left, right, front, back and centre join the queue to vote for your preferred candidate. Bawumia should do his background checks on those he wants to constitute his regional and constituency campaign teams. Some of the appointees have become too unpopular in their regions and constituencies such that if the lead anything, it will backfire. Greed, selfishness, arrogance, empty pride, wickedness, enthocentrism is the lot of some of them. Be very careful with them. As the Vice President ,you can ask national security to test the popularity ratings of those appointees you want in your campaign team from the ordinary NPP supporter in the street from the regions and constituencies they hail from.
