Hopeson Adorye, a member of the Alan Kyerematen flagbearership campaign team, has declared that he will vote for Alan Kyerematen as an independent in the 2024 presidential election even though he is still a member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Hopeson Adorye said to Atinka TV at a Movement for Change event.
“I am NPP, but I am a sympathiser of Movement for Change. When it is election time, I will vote for Alan Kyeremateng. In Parliament, I will vote for the NPP candidate. If the NPP say they don’t like it, I will take my vote where I want,” he said.
Mr. Hopeson Adorye asserts that there is associational freedom in politics.
“We have freedom of association. Freedom of association is guaranteed. I believe in Alan Kojo Kyeremateng. That’s why I will vote for him. In 2016, do you know the number of NDC members who voted for Akufo-Addo?“ he asked.
He added: “I have faith in Alan Kyeremateng. We need a plan. We have ideas, but where is the plan to execute them? Alan Kyeremateng is the future of the youth of Ghana.”
Alan Kyerematen declared that he would run as an independent for president in 2024 after leaving the NPP’s flagbearer contest.
On Monday, September 25, 2023, he turned in his letter of resignation stating that he was no longer interested in being an NPP member.
He founded the “Movement for Change,” which adopted a monarch butterfly as its emblem.
Meanwhile, Mr. Kyerematen has urged Ghanaians to vote against the two major parties in the general elections of 2024.
He claimed that vice president Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and former president John Dramani Mahama had nothing new to offer the nation.
Speaking to a large group of volunteers as part of his orientation program in Accra, the well-known former Trade and Industry Minister, Alan Cash, asked what novel ideas Ghanaians are being exposed to from presidential candidates Mahama and Bawumia of the NDC and NPP, respectively.
