Spokesperson for Ing. Kwabena Agyepong, Paul Abdul Rahman Issah Dowuona, has disclosed that the former NPP General Secretary is not personally financing his presidential bid, but is receiving strong financial backing from a growing base of party faithful who believe in his leadership vision.
His remarks come in response to the New Patriotic Party’s recent announcement that all prospective presidential aspirants must pay a non-refundable application fee of GHS100,000 ahead of the party’s primaries in January 2026.
Speaking on Channel One Newsroom on Tuesday, July 29, Issah Dowuona stressed that Agyepong’s campaign is people-driven and sustained by community support.
He noted that many within the party view Agyepong as a technocratic leader capable of guiding Ghana into a new era of development.
“The engineer is not financing this from his pocket. He has a lot of people who believe in his ideas and believe that he is the right man in 2028. Essentially, His Excellency, the current president, is a transitional president. After the four years, we need an engineer to engineer the country’s development. We have a lot of people supporting us, and we are calling on people to support us,” he stated.
Issah Dowuona added that the campaign team is confident that both Ghanaians and NPP delegates are ready to rally behind a candidate like Kwabena Agyepong—one who represents competence, unity, and forward-looking leadership.
