Alan Quits NPP, Goes Independent For 2024 Elections

Persistent attacks on follows of Alan Kwadwo Kyeremanten by members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has compelled him to say good bye to the New Patriotic Party and goes independent.

He has accordingly announced that he is contesting the 2024 general elections as an Independent Presidential Candidate.

”What Ghana needs now is a new leader, not a new political party” he stated.

He said his decision to go independent would not destroy the NPP as a party but afford them the opportunity to partake in the government of national unity.

Alan Kyeremanten stated that intimidation and monetisation in the 2024 NPP super delegates conference is unprecedented.

According to him, he joined the NPP based of stated values since its formation but observed that the NPP as it exists now has very little resemblance of the party he joined many years.

The party he said has been hijacked by who he described as some unscrupulous elements and its therefore evidently clear to him that his contribution to the party are no longer needed hence his decision to go solo.

He said he will lead the establishment of a new movement for change in Ghana based on transformation.

Ghana he said would rise again, saying he offers vision, competence and action.

”I wish to use this platform to announce that, I am honourbly resigning from the party with immediate effect” he stated.
