“Give Me 8 Years and I’ll Surpass Kwame Nkrumah’s Record” – Ken Agyapong

Former Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong, has made a bold declaration, calling on Ghanaians to give him an eight-year mandate to serve as president — promising to break the legacy record of Ghana’s first president, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.

Speaking in a recent media engagement, Agyapong asserted that with the right support and time in office, he could accomplish transformative developments across the country that would surpass even the most iconic achievements of Ghana’s founding leader.

A Call to Trust in Leadership Beyond Rhetoric

The outspoken businessman and politician emphasized that his campaign is not about empty promises but practical leadership focused on discipline, economic revival, and infrastructure development. Agyapong stressed the need for Ghanaians to move beyond nostalgia and evaluate leaders based on impact and results.

While Dr. Kwame Nkrumah is widely revered for his visionary role in Ghana’s independence and early industrialization, Agyapong believes modern challenges require a hands-on, no-nonsense approach — a style he says he is best known for.

His comments have sparked debate across Ghana’s political spectrum, with some praising his confidence and others questioning whether any leader can truly outshine Nkrumah’s legacy. As the 2028 elections approach, Kennedy Agyapong continues to position himself as a pragmatic alternative with bold ideas for Ghana’s future.
