Kwabena Adjei Agyepong

A contestant in Saturday’s NPP Special Delegates Conference, Kwabena Adjei Agyepong has slammed the attempts by some aspirants to undermine the outcome of the election.

Mahamudu Bawumia emerged winner of the election, polling 629 out of 961, while Kwabena Agyepong failed to make it into the top 5.

However, speaking in an interview with Joy News, Kwabena Agyepong accepted the outcome of the election as the will of delegates.Some of the aspirants have been trying to undermine the process by alleging intimidation and vote buying but Kwabena Agyepong disagreed, insisting that the process was generally free and delegates freely expressed their will without coercion.

“I am happy with the way the election itself was conducted and kudos to the election committee,” he said.”So far, all the reports, apart from one or two places that there were some physical altercation which were unnecessary, I think it was a simple walk-in process; no gatherings, no addresses; just walk in and vote and express your opinion.””I don’t believe in looking for excuses because at the end of the day, everybody went and voted for the person they favoured.

When we have an election, we should accept the results and move on.”He urged those finding excuses to refrain from it and similarly accept their outcome.

The party, the delegates have decided.

You have to respect the decision of the majority,” he said.
