Spokesperson for Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, Kwasi Kwarteng, has said the campaign team of the NPP flagbearer hopeful believes that polling station executives hold the true sovereignty of the party, which is why they are being prioritised in the campaign.
Mr Kwarteng made the remarks following the declaration of support for former Vice-President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia by some 188 former New Patriotic Party parliamentary candidates from the 2024 elections.
He said the endorsement had not shaken Mr Agyapong’s campaign, and they have a different strategy to win the primaries. “The strategy of Ken’s campaign is to move to the polling station executives, the over 209,000 polling station executives and appeal to them, solicit their votes. We believe that the sovereignty resides in them.”
He criticised the Bawumia campaign team for what he described as an overconcentration on the top hierarchy of the party at the expense of the grassroots.
According to him, that approach risks alienating the very foundation of the party.
“Sometimes, I wonder, the management of Dr Bawumia’s campaign, I don’t know how they take the polling station executives to be, because it appears that all their hopes have been in the top hierarchy, either MPs, MMDCEs or PCs…. we believe that the polling station executives are important, they are currently aware of the current status of our party,” he said.
