Upon initial observation, Alan Kyerematen’s new political party logo closely resembles a real-life monarch butterfly, offering a nearly lifelike representation.
While it may appear that minimal effort was made to tailor the Nymphalid butterfly to align with the conventions of a typical Ghanaian political party logo, closer scrutiny reveals that the Movement for Change emblem has, in fact, been adjusted to accurately portray the likeness of a genuine monarch butterfly, possibly through alterations inspired by images found on Google.
Alan Kyerematen decided on the monarch butterfly as his political symbol after exiting the New Patriotic Party on September 25, 2023. For him, the monarch butterfly carries deep symbolism, representing transformation and change in the realm of Ghanaian politics.

The monarch butterfly is known for its striking black and orange colors and is associated with transformation, rebirth, and renewal.
Mr Kyerematen’s decision to run as an independent candidate marks a significant departure from his longstanding association with the NPP, and the monarch butterfly, he says symbolizes his quest for political change and growth.
He notes that the monarch butterfly’s strength and endurance are parallel to his determination to uphold his convictions and principles.
The choice of black and orange in the symbol carries significance for the former Trade Minister. Black represents mystery and power, which Mr Kyerematen says emphasizes the enigmatic nature of his departure from the NPP.
However, it also hints at the mixed emotions and potential conflicts surrounding his decision. On the other hand, the vibrant orange symbolizes Kyerematen’s passion for change, creative approach to politics, and his goal to uplift the spirits of the Ghanaian people.
