Speaking on Peace FM on Wednesday, April 30, 2025, he stated, “I was happy to hear Kennedy Agyapong has pulled out of the ‘Thank You Tour.’ Currently, the tour is proceeding smoothly just as we wanted it to. As part of the NPP’s tradition, the flagbearer and party executives embark on a tour after every election to thank party supporters.

“From the time of Kufuor, who lost elections to Rawlings, he embarked on the tour alone without his opponents, Adu Boahen, and other contenders. Akufo-Addo, after losing the 2008 Election, also embarked on the tour with party executives without his contenders like Alan Kyerematen.”

He added, “Dr Bawumia, who has good intentions, proposed that all aspirants come on board for the tour, which he believes will promote unity, hence extending invites to all NPP presidential aspirants. Kennedy Agyapong came on board, and we all began the tour. Right from the beginning in the Western Region, we observed that the tour was being turned into a popularity contest by some people, with them bringing their supporters along, which wasn’t how we wanted the tour to be. How things were going was bad, only for this to happen.”

“What was the need for a student jama group to attend a party tour. They had no business there. Some supporters came sharing T-shirts and all that, for what? It wasn’t a contest nor a competition only for the unfortunate stabbing to happen,” he added.

“Party executives had planned to meet Bawumia, Kennedy Agyapong and Kojo Opoku to have a sit down discussion, only for us to hear he had withdrawn from it. Kennedy’s presence made it seem like it was a competition, defeating the purpose of trying to foster unity. If he is withdrawing then its a good move…” he added.

His comments come following the stabbing of a student of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology during the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Thank You Tour.

According to Kennedy Agyapong, he joined Dr Mahamudu Bawumia for the sake of unity but all indication shows he is not wanted.

Speaking to the media he stated, “For unity’s sake, I felt it was important to join Dr Bawumia on his ‘Thank You’ tour. But from all indications, it’s very clear I’m not wanted.

“Because of yesterday’s events, myself and my team want to pull out because lives are threatened. I don’t think I can adequately protect my team.”

“The reason I am withdrawing is mainly to protect my people. But we will regroup, and at the appropriate time, we will also do what we have to do to help the party and enhance my chances.”
