Betty Agyapong, sister to Kennedy Agyapong (L) speaking in an interview
Betty Agyapong, sister to Kennedy Agyapong, a former presidential aspirant of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has shared a childhood revelation about her brother’s long-held ambition to become Ghana’s president.
According to her, at the age of 13, Kennedy marked a wall, sealing his vision of one day leading the country.
Betty recounted that even as a young boy, Kennedy expressed his aspiration to become Ghana’s highest leader, a claim he made to his family with absolute conviction.
She added that some family members began addressing him as “President,” and she personally referred to him as “President Mamunda.”
In an exclusive interview shared on social media, Betty shared, “When we were young, I was 11 and he was 13, and he marked it on the wall that one day he would become president. From then on, we used to call him President, but personally, I called him President Mamunda.”
Meanwhile, Kennedy Agyapong has officially declared his intention to contest for the presidency on the NPP ticket should nominations open ahead of the 2028 elections.
Having contested against Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in the 2024 NPP primaries, Kennedy failed to secure victory, receiving less than 40% of the total valid votes cast.
