I'm not going to change my firebrand just because I want to be President - Kennedy Agyapong.
Kennedy Agyapong expresses renewed interest in being the NPP's flagbearer.
Kennedy Agyapong criticizes Ghanaians for their dual personalities in Ghana and abroad.
Kennedy Agyapong claims to be motivated by a love for his country.
Kennedy Agyapong, a New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer candidate, has admitted that he is emotional, but he is working on it.
In a Twi-based interview with Net2 TV, the outspoken politician stated that he has received similar feedback from the public over the years, which he has identified as a problem that needs to be addressed.
The Assin Central MP explained that his emotional nature stems from his passion to see the country chart a path of progress.
Kennedy Agyapong maintained that he will not change his character as he seeks to contest positions. He stated that a change in character will smack off pretence which he was unwilling to do.
Speaking further on the issue of his emotional nature, the Chairman of Parliament’s Defense and Interior Committee said Ghanaians are noted to tag persons who insist on the right things as emotional.
“I agree I’m too emotional but I’m working at it. Sometimes you must tell the truth to the faces of people. When you are doing that you will be accused of being emotional. But I accept [I am emotional] Everybody tells me that. It means it’s a problem that I have to work on it.
“But you all will attest to it those of you work here at Oman FM…that emotional thing…if that’s how I am…how long have you worked here?... I won’t be able to work with people if I am emotional. I will not change completely because I want a position so I will pretend. My ‘yes ‘ will always be ‘yes’, my ‘no’ will always be no.
“If you do something and it’s wrong, I’ll tell you so that we can move this country. This emotion you talk about is what is not making the systems work in Ghana.
“Ghanaians work well when they travel outside the country because the systems work and they obey. They become the best workers who are loved by lots of companies. When you try to let the systems work [in Ghana], people say you are emotional,” Kennedy Agyapong lamented.
