The campaign team of New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer aspirant Kwabena Agyei Agyepong (KAA) has formally responded to the high-profile defection of its former Campaign Manager, Ofosu Asamoah, stating the move is \u201cneither unexpected nor disruptive\u201d to its mission.<\/p>\n

In a communiqu\u00e9 issued on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, the KAA team asserted that their political movement is built on core principles rather than the shifting loyalties of individuals, emphasising a continuation of their grassroots-focused campaign against the monetisation of politics.<\/p>\n

The official response, signed by Campaign Spokesperson Nana Ama Asantewaa Kwarko, acknowledged the departure of the former Kade MP, who recently declared his support for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe campaign team of Ing. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong has taken note of the decision by our former Campaign Manager, Hon. Ofosu Asamoah, to pursue a different political path within the New Patriotic Party (NPP).\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The statement characterised the defection as a normal occurrence in the political landscape: \u201cThis development, while unfortunate is neither unexpected nor disruptive to our mission. In the dynamic landscape of politics, such defections are a feature sometimes observed even at the highest levels of national politics.\u201d<\/p>\n

The KAA campaign thanked Mr. Ofosu Asamoah for his service and wished him well, immediately pivoting to reassure their base.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cTo our supporters, delegates, and the countless Ghanaians who believe in our vision, we say: Do not be perturbed. Our resolve is stronger than ever. This campaign is never about a single person; it is about a fundamental cause\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The KAA campaign reiterated that its strength lies in its message of \u201cService, Sacrifice, and Selflessness,\u201d contrasting its approach with that of rival campaigns. They highlighted Ing. Agyepong\u2019s resilience following years of political adversity:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cFor a decade, Ing. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong has endured orchestrated political adversity, was ostracized and maligned yet Ing Agyepong has remained steadfast, never turning his back on his beloved NPP. His commitment is forged in resilience, not in the transient allure of resources.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The statement openly acknowledged the campaign\u2019s lack of funding, positioning it as an anti-corruption and anti-monetization movement:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe openly acknowledge that we do not possess the vast exchequer available to our fellow Aspirants\u2026 Our strength is in our message. A message of hope, unity, and a return to our noble roots and core values of our great party, the NPP, which is resonating powerfully with delegates across the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The KAA team strongly condemned the practice of vote-buying, which they claim led to the party\u2019s \u201cmost humiliating recent defeat\u201d\u2014likely referencing the substantial loss of parliamentary seats in recent general elections.<\/p>\n

The campaign confirmed that its focus remains locked on securing victory in the upcoming January 31, 2026, presidential primaries.<\/p>\n

The spokesperson urged supporters to maintain focus: \u201cWe call on all supporters to remain calm, focused, and doubly committed. Let us continue to work hard together, united in purpose, to deliver a victory that will set our party and our nation on the path to true prosperity.\u201d<\/p>\n

The communiqu\u00e9 concluded with the rallying cry: \u201cTogether, we shall prevail.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
