In a statement issued on September 30, 2025, Mr Agyarko said his decision followed extensive consultations with his family, close associates, and party faithful who would be most affected by his political choices.
He noted that after careful reflection, he considered it his “bounden duty” to respond to the calls urging him to take up the challenge of leading the party at the national level.
“I have also listened carefully to what the broad masses of our party people, and indeed many outside our party, are asking of me.
"Having factored in all the considerations, I see it as my bounden duty to respond to this call to duty, and hereby announce that I will contest for the position of National Chairman of my party upon the opening of nominations,” the statement read.
