Boakye Kyeremanteng Agyarko has quashed reports that he has pulled out of the NPP flagbearer race.
In a statement on Monday, August 28, the former Energy Minister urged Ghanaians to disregard the false claims.
He's declared his readiness to face Francis Addai Nimoh on Saturday, September 2, 2023 for the final slot to join the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, Kennedy Agyapong, Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen and Dr Owusu Afriyie Akoto for November elections.
"I have not made any such pronouncements with anyone or any media house, I am ready for the upcoming run-off scheduled for Saturday, 2nd September, 2023," Boakye Agyarko said.
In the Super Delegates Congress held on Saturday, August 26, Boakye Agyarko and Francis Addai-Nimoh secured nine (9) votes.
The nine votes each means a tie at the 5th position.
The Elections Committee of the NPP has therefore decided that there will be a run-off between the two - Boakye Agyarko and Francis Addai Nimoh on Saturday, September 2, 2023.
The NPP presidential primaries will be held on November 4, 2023.
The winner of the primaries will be the party’s flagbearer in the 2024 general elections.
