Agyapong has been a key figure in parliamentary politics for over two decades. He will not be returning to parliament after the 2024 elections.

His dream to contest for president on the ticket of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) failed when he lost the flagbearership race to Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia.

There are rumours that though he would not contest as an independent candidate in the upcoming polls, he would also not actively campaign for the Bawumia ticket.
