Former Director of Communications of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and spokesperson for Alan Kyerematen’s campaign, Yaw Buaben Asamoa has asserted that the Founder and Leader of the Movement for Change, will emerge as winner in the 2024 presidential elections.
According to Yaw Asamoa, he is convinced that Mr. Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen will defeat John Mahama and Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia in the upcoming 2024 presidential polls because voters have evolved faster than NDC and NPP.
The former MP for Adentan Constituency added that the over 17million electorates are looking for something different from the mere campaign messages both NPP and NDC are rallying.

In the same interview, Yaw Asamoa spoke about Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia‘s selection as the new NPP flagbearer.
Speaking in an interview on Citi TV’s Big Issue Show, Yaw Buaben Asamoa claimed that “There wasn’t a genuine choice” in the recent ended NPP presidential primaries which saw Dr. Bawumia won by a landslide.
According to the former MP for Adentan Constituency, NPP delegates were forced against their will to vote for the Vice President to become the new the flagbearer.
“The import of skewing the election is that, there wasn’t a genuine choice. Delegates were not given space/room to select the person of their choice. When it knocks on, it means that the person that the party has brought, may not necessarily reflect the choice of majority of the voters in Ghana,” he said.
Mr. Yaw Asamoa asserted that NPP delegates were to told to vote for Dr. Bawumia to prove that the NPP is not an Akan party as the NDC has been using it against them.
Also, delegates were informed that the NDC fears Bawumia and finally, Dr. Bawumia’s selection will help the party win the muslim and zongo communities.
However, the Spokesperson of Alan Kyerematen, he noted that these theories do not reflect the choice of 17million Ghanaian voters.
