Former Western North Regional Minister, Rocky Obeng, has commended New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential aspirant Kennedy Agyapong for placing the welfare of the party’s grassroots at the centre of his campaign.

Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, Mr. Obeng said Agyapong’s engagements with polling station executives demonstrate his genuine concern for ordinary party members.

He emphasised the importance for aspirants to apologise to the party’s grassroots following the 2024 electoral defeat, to rebuild trust and rekindle commitment ahead of future elections.

“When you are meeting with party polling station executives, you need to be well-prepared because understanding politics is essential. If you approach them without this understanding, you might be surprised by their perspectives. Ken’s message is all about addressing their well-being and expectations,” Mr. Obeng said.

He added, “As an aspirant, he needs to communicate his plans to both the grassroots and delegates. I’m sure the other aspirants agree with Ken that we need to apologise to the party grassroots so we can rekindle the spirit and energy after losing the last elections.”
