In an unexpected development, the supporters of erstwhile New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer candidate Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen have denied supporting Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia in front of the November 4, 2023, presidential election.
The team labeled content from both traditional and social media outlets as fake news.
Solomon Owusu, a member of Alan Kyerematen’s campaign team, stressed that Kyerematen has not and will not endorse the Vice President, despite assertions on numerous news websites and social media platforms to the contrary.
The reports of endorsement, according to Owusu, were an effort by Nana Akufo-Addo and Bawumia to win support after their claimed activities had harmed the party. He also indicated that Alan Kyerematen would address the nation shortly and outline his political aspirations for Ghana.
It should be noted that on September 5, 2023, Alan Kyerematen declared his intention to retire from the election for NPP Flagbearer.
The former Trade and Industry Minister justified his choice by pointing to his agents’ intimidation. In addition, Kyerematen raised worry about the Special Delegates Conference, saying it was unjustly slanted in favor of one particular candidate.
These changes will undoubtedly affect the dynamics inside the NPP as the November 4, 2023 presidential election draws near. The way the candidates handle these situations and whether any additional endorsements or withdrawals take place in the coming days will be widely watched by voters and party members.
