Ghana needs a leader who understands job creation — Kennedy Agyapong’s wife

The wife of former Assin Central MP, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, Christiana Agyapong, has urged New Patriotic Party (NPP) delegates to vote for her husband as the party’s flagbearer for the 2028 general elections.

She argued that Ghana needs a leader well-versed in industrialization and job creation, like her husband.

In a Christmas message, Mrs. Agyapong emphasized that unemployment remains the country’s most pressing challenge.

She noted that her husband has the vision to support small businesses and expand manufacturing to create sustainable jobs for the youth.

“With the unemployment challenge in mind, I believe the NPP must choose a leader who understands how jobs are created, a leader that supports entrepreneurship and helps small businesses expand so our young ones can work, be innovative and build sustainable livelihoods,” she said.

She also highlighted the importance of choosing a leader trusted by the people and capable of inspiring confidence nationwide.

“He’s number one on the ballot paper. Our future, our children’s future, our party’s future, and our nation’s future depends on who we vote for come January 31, 2026.

“I humbly encourage all delegates to consider and choose a leader who is trusted by the people, broadly accepted by the people, and inspires confidence across the country,” Mrs. Agyapong appealed to the delegates.
