If there is any candidate that the New Patriotic Party delegates should rally behind, it is no other person than Hon. Boakye Kyeremateng Agyarko. Having monitored his interviews on the radio and television sometime now, I will say with all honesty that he is the man Ghana needs. He has a very good understanding of the economic situation of Ghana and the ability to render practicable solutions.
He is a man who has paid his due to the Danquah-Busia-Dombo tradition having played pivotal role prior in the formation of the party. He entered politics at an early age as the National Coordinator for
. He also
held several positions including chairman of the Danquah Busia Club of North America, and briefly served as a Trustee of the Busia Foundation. He was later elected the coordinator for the New Patriotic Party in North America.
In 2012, Agyarko was appointed as National Campaign Manager of the New Patriotic Party for the Presidential election and in 2016 he was appointed the Policy Adviser to the Presidential Candidate of the New Patriotic Party.
In 2017, he became the Minister for Energy and by 2018 he was relieved of his post.
The 2024 election will be based on accountability and economic prowess. This is a man who was able to manage the Bank of New York, one of the topmost banks in the world. He has not been substantially a part of this Nana Addo government, so he comes to the election table with cleaner hands. Electorates may not have much of a reason to vote against him.
Moreover, he is on top of issues, has a good sense of judgement, experienced and a honest personality.
He is also not part of any faction of the party and has the tendency to unify the party for the 2024 victory.
I wish him well as he makes it to the top 5 candidates to contest for the flagbearership of the party at the Super Delegates Conference tomorrow.
