Independent presidential candidate, Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen, has confidently made predictions ahead the NPP primaries on November 4, 2023.
According to him the results will be no different from what emerged at the end of the NPP Super Delegates Conference held in August.
He therefore told the media in an interview that the circle of people who contributed to the outcome in August will still influence the outcome on November 4th 2023.
“That’s why in my earlier statement, I said that the value will be the same. Its not going to change. Because the two hundred thousand delegates are controlled by the same establishment,” the former trade minister stated.
Due to Alan Kyerematen’s assertion, he says he has not expectation of recieving support from those circle of voters.
So i tell my team people that my strength does not lie with the two hundred thousand people. My strength lies with the rank and file of the party. And when we talk about the rank and file of the party, it is not the two hundred thousand people. 6.5 million and over vote for NPP in our elections and they are the strength of the party”.
In the span of just three days, Alan Kyerematen has engaged in a series of media interactions.
These discussions come in the wake of his departure from the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) and his decision to run as an independent candidate in the 2024 elections.
Throughout these interviews, he has consistently defended both of his choices and has addressed the underlying issues that prompted his resignation from the NPP.
Furthermore, Alan has elaborated on his extensive 30-year involvement within the NPP, particularly highlighting his achievements as a trade minister during the current administration led by Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
Regarding party-related matters, Alan has found it necessary to reference four national officers and has issued direct responses to comments attributed to them, which are either in support of or in opposition to his resignation.
