Flagbearer hopeful for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, says his political journey is guided by principle and integrity rather than the pursuit of power.
Speaking in an interview on Channel One TV’s The Point of View on Wednesday October 22, the former NPP General Secretary said he is determined to advocate for what is right in Ghana, even if doing so comes at a political cost.
“No, I shouldn’t [give up]. I want to be known as the one who stood up for what is right in Ghana. I want to die on principle and push for things to be done properly in our country, and if it comes at a political cost, it doesn’t matter,” he stated.
Mr. Agyepong, who has been vocal about the need for discipline, transparency, and ethical leadership within Ghana’s political system, said his focus is on promoting good governance and accountability.
He noted that public service should be about national interest, not personal ambition, and urged politicians to prioritise honesty and competence in their dealings.
As one of the NPP figures expected to contest the party’s next presidential primaries on January 31, 2026, Agyepong said his vision is to restore integrity to Ghanaian politics and ensure that leadership is driven by values rather than expediency.
