Founder and leader of the Movement for Change, Alan Kyerematen, has pledged to provide tangible support to orphaned and disadvantaged children if elected President in the upcoming December 7 polls.
Kyerematen articulated his commitment to revamping the social welfare department and allocating necessary resources to enhance its capacity to cater to the needs of vulnerable children.
During his campaign tour, Kyerematen encountered orphaned children begging for alms at the Bantama market, an experience that reinforced his determination to prioritize the welfare of neglected children.
In response, he emphasized the importance of creating market-based support centers and delivering essential services such as teaching, counseling, healthcare, and nutritional assistance to these children.
“These centers will serve as havens of safety and support, nurturing not just their material needs but also their emotional and psychological well-being,” Kyerematen remarked in a Facebook post.
Highlighting his vision for inclusive governance, Kyerematen stressed the need for collective action to ensure that every child, irrespective of their circumstances, receives the care and support they deserve. He emphasized the role of compassion and proactive measures in building a future where no child is left behind.
“If entrusted with the presidency, I am more determined than ever to prioritize the welfare of neglected children,” Kyerematen affirmed. “Through compassion and action, we can build a future where no child is left behind, beginning with initiatives rooted in our markets.”
Kyerematen’s commitment to addressing the plight of orphaned and disadvantaged children underscores the importance of social welfare initiatives in promoting inclusive development and safeguarding the rights of vulnerable populations. As Ghana prepares for the upcoming elections, Kyerematen’s pledge resonates with the aspirations of many citizens who prioritize the well-being and protection of children as a cornerstone of national progress.
