Former Western North Regional Minister, Joojo Rocky Obeng, has weighed in on the evolving political dynamics within the New Patriotic Party (NPP), stating that while the 2024 election initially strengthened the case for former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, current sentiments within the party base now overwhelmingly favour former Assin Central Member of Parliament (MP) Kennedy Ohene Agyapong.

Speaking on ‘s on Tuesday June 24, he noted a shift in momentum since the 2024 general election, which saw former Vice President Bawumia lead the party into a high-stakes contest.

“Election 2024 made a stronger case for Dr Alhaji Bawumia,” Obeng acknowledged. “But post-election 2024, the party base and elections that are ahead of us, in my considered view, are making a much, much stronger case for Kennedy Ohene Agyapong.”

His remarks suggest a growing groundswell of support within the NPP for the former Assin Central MP, who gained significant attention during the party’s flagbearer race and remains a vocal figure in Ghanaian politics.
