Alan John Kwadwo Kyerematen has reiterated his commitment to addressing Ghana’s economic crisis.
Mr Kyerematen addressing a press conference in Accra today, Monday 25, September 2023 to announce his resignation from the New Patriotic Party (NPP), emphasizing his commitment to solving pressing issues facing the country, including economic development, job creation, and social welfare.
He stated that his decision to run as an independent candidate was driven by his belief that this approach would enable him to better serve the interests of the Ghanaian people.
Some political watchers say his candidacy as an independent candidate presents a unique challenge to the established political order in Ghana, with the potential to reshape the political landscape.
This is the second time Mr. Kyerematen is quitting the NPP.
Feeling bitter about the loss in the 2007 presidential primary and what he described subsequently as being sidelined, Alan, in 2008 resigned from the NPP in a similar move but was politically coerced and later rejoined the party.
Kyerematen’s decision to break away from the NPP again and contest the 2024 elections as an independent candidate marks a significant moment in Ghanaian politics.
