In a surprising turn of events, the camp of former flagbearer hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen, has further denied endorsing Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia ahead of the November 4, 2023 flagbearership election
The team described publications as fake news that Ghanaians must not buy into .
Despite this fake news , a leading member of Alan Kyerematen’s campaign team, Solomon Owusu, clarified that Kyerematen has never endorsed the Vice President and will not do so for any reason.
Mr. Owusu further stated that the rumors of endorsement were attempts by Nana Akufo-Addo and Bawumia to gain sympathy after their actions had allegedly caused harm to the party. He also mentioned that Alan Kyerematen would soon address the nation and reveal his plans for Ghanaian politics.
Hon. Alan Kyerematen announced his withdrawal from the NPP Flagbearership race on September 5, 2023, which has since become the theme of every conversation as many see it as a threat to the NPP.
The former Trade and Industry Minister cited the intimidation of his agents as the reason behind his decision. Additionally, Kyerematen expressed concern over the Special Delegates Conference, claiming that it was unfairly biased towards a specific aspirant.
As the November 4, 2023, Presidential election approaches, these developments will certainly impact the dynamics within the NPP. Voters and party members will be closely watching to see how the candidates navigate these circumstances and whether any further endorsements or withdrawals will occur in the coming days.
