The former trade minister Alan Kyerematen has said his decision to resign from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) will not destroy the governing party.
Kyerematen officially resigned from the New patriotic Party on Monday barely a month after withdrawing from the party’s flagbearer race. He has since declared his intention to contest the 2024 presidential election as an independent candidate.
Speaking at a media engagement on Monday (25 September), Kyerematen said his decision will present an opportunity to the party to participate in a national unity government.
“I wish to use this opportunity to assure the rank and file of the NPP that I still very much cherish my relationship with you., and I am committed to the ideals of the founding fathers of the party,” he said.
“My decision to contest as an independent candidate will not destroy the party, but rather provide the party an opportunity for the party to participate in a government of national unity,” Kyerematen added.
