Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen, a former presidential hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has made a statement that subtly criticizes the current flagbearer of the NPP and Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.
Kyerematen, who has formed his own party called the Movement for Change after leaving the NPP, emphasized the importance of electing a Christian as President in the upcoming General Elections, considering the majority of Ghanaians are Christians.
He stated that it is the responsibility of every Christian to ensure that a Christian leader, who embodies the qualities of Christ, is elected as President following the 2024 Presidential Election.
Kyerematen, a Christian himself, did not hold back in using religious sentiments to his advantage in his address.
“So as a predominantly Christian nation, as Christians it is our responsibility to ensure that we elect a Christian leader who is also a Christlike leader,” he said.
Previously, Tru News Report quoted Alan urging NPP supporters to vote ‘skirt and blouse’ after he officially resigned from the party and declared his intention to run in the 2024 elections as an independent candidate.
Alan further asked Ghanaians to give him the mandate to lead the country as an independent candidate, as he has no ties with the NPP or NDC which means he has new ideas to formulate to turn the fortunes of the country around.
He said the concept of becoming the first independent candidate to be the president of the Republic of Ghana would revolutionize the country and take it to the next level.
In a speech streamed live on social media, Alan said his breakaway from the party does not mean he has turned his back on the party.
He said he still cherishes his relationship with the rank and file of the NPP party while urging the supporters to vote for their preferred NPP parliamentary candidates and vote for him as the next president of Ghana.
Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen further explained why he has left the NPP and is gearing up to contest the 2024 elections as an independent candidate.
On Monday, September 25, 2023, Alan submitted his resignation letter to the NPP, stating that he was no longer interested in being a member of the party.
