He also pledged to implement a structured and coordinated urban planning and development system, utilising land and other resources to create personal wealth to facilitate economic growth.
Mr Agyei Agyepong said his vision for the country included a fiscally responsible and socially cohesive economy that provided opportunities for citizens to access quality education and healthcare, and restore meritocracy and professionalism in the workplace and society.
The civil engineer who once steered the party as General Secretary said he was in the flagbearership race to restore the party’s cherished values of service, sacrifice and sacrifice and selflessness.

He highlighted the country’s current challenges, including poor sanitation, illegal mining, high unemployment and chaotic urban planning.
Always a buoyant personality, eloquent in speech and strong in his beliefs, Mr Agyepong sought to appeal to the wider population of the youth beyond the grassroots of the party, referencing the high unemployment rate as an urgent national issue needing urgent solution.
