National campaign coordinator for Kennedy Agyapong's candidacy for flagbearer, Kwame Owusu, has disclosed how an incident concerning their polling agent in the North East Region was resolved.

He mentioned that upon being informed by the female agent in the region about the difficulties she was encountering, he brought the matter to the notice of the Inspector-General of Police, George Akuffo Dampare, who skillfully facilitated a resolution.

During an interview with Oman FM shortly after Kennedy Agyapong's passionate outburst at the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Super Delegates Conference voting on Saturday (August 26), he explained that the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) instructed the local police to address the situation. This resulted in the resolution of the standoff, leading to the replacement of the agent from the Ken Agyapong team at the center.

"I interceded and I called quickly and I got the police and the IGP put people on line and we have our representative there who is making sure that things are ok…

"I called in the Inspector-General of Police, he has been so helpful, he got the commander there and we have been able to resolve the issue... Ganiyu our second agent is there and we spoke to him and he said he is okay," he stressed.

Ken Agyapong descended into a fit while speaking to Oman FM alleging that his polling agent had been chased from the Nalerigu regional polling station in the North East Region - believed to be a stronghold of Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia.

He threatened to give the president and Bawumia a 'showdown' and to ensure the party lands in opposition if that is what they want by mistreating aspirants in the flagbearership race.

Agyapong, who came a distant second in the super delegates vote is currently the subject of summons to appear before the party's disciplinary committee over his comments.

"Something happened in the Northern Region and the people who were there just called Kennedy to tell him, it was specifically my uncle, Kwame Owusu… he called Kennedy and you know at a time like this his energy will be high.

"And you are not there but called him to say this what has happened, meanwhile we have police and agents there, so, why do you have to talk?" he stressed.
