Campaign Manager of Team Kennedy Agyapong, Kwame Owusu
Kwame Owusu, the campaign manager of the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, has offered a sincere apology to anyone his candidate has offended in the course of performing his duties.
According to him, the actions of Kennedy Agyapong that have infuriated any member of the public should be pardoned because human beings are fallible and
The former boss of the Ghana Maritime Authority stated that even the way and manner in which the flagbearer hopeful of the NPP speaks shows a sign of remorse in his actions.
Speaking in an interview with Kwesi Parker-Wilson on Oyerepa TV on Monday, August 21, 2023, the campaign manager for Kennedy Agyapong asked for forgiveness and urged Ghanaians to focus on his policies and what he will bring on board as a leader.
“Even the way he [Kennedy] speaks, shows that he is remorseful. But if you say he should approach everyone individually and apologize, as a human being living in political circles for over 30 years, by the time he finishes, we would have been done with the elections. So possibly there might be a way out.
“I will take this opportunity on Kennedy’s behalf that if he has wronged anyone in the course of performing his duties or outside of it, I will say as a campaign manager that he should be forgiven and we should focus on the leadership he wants to bring on board because to err is human,” he said in Twi on Oyerepa TV.
