Following Alan Kyerematen’s seemingly warpath with the incumbent New Patriotic Party (NPP) which saw him pulling out of the flagbearership race, ace broadcaster Afia Pokua aka Vim Lady has made a shocking prediction about the next phase of his political career.
As per her statement, it is possible that Mr. Alan Kyerematen may align himself with the primary opposition party, the National Democratic Congress, and collaborate with John Dramani Mahama in the forthcoming elections.
She said she has examined the contents of Alan’s press release, which elucidates his decision to withdraw from the flagbearership position, and believes that his decision was motivated by frustration and a desire for retribution. She suggests that Alan may seek to retaliate against the NPP by joining forces with Mahama.
“Alan’s letter proves that he has nothing to lose. he has achieved a lot in life and he can decide to retire. He can also decide that he will pay the party back in their own coin. He is a wounded lion. He could partner with John Mahama and become his running mate just to spite the party, just for diabolic reasons,” Vim Lady stated on Okay FM.
She cited an example where Mr. Mahama was with Alan throughout his mother-in-law’s funeral, while most NPP members were absent.
“Do you know when Alan’s mother-in-law recently died, a lot of NPP members didn’t attend the funeral? Mahama was there. Throughout the funeral, John Mahama was there.
“Look at Alan’s persona and John Mahama’s persona, it clicks. Alan Kyeremanten’s base is in the Ashanti region. NDC is seeking to increase its base in the Ashanti region massively,” Vim lady averred.
Tru News Report previously shed light on this trending topic when it said Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen has shockingly withdrawn his candidacy as far as the flagbearership slot of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) is concerned.
He made the announcement in a statement dated September 5, 2023. The core point of his seemingly lengthy speech indicates that the race seems to be deliberately skewed to favour one of the candidates.
“In light of the foregoing, I wish to confirm that I am honourably withdrawing from the process that will lead to the Presidential Primaries to be held on the 4th of November 2023. In the next upcoming weeks, I will provide an indication of the role that I will play in politics in Ghana, after consultations with my family and other well-wishers, various stakeholders and interest groups,” he added.
“The level of intimidation of varying intensity, directly and indirectly, unleashed on a significant number of Delegates at various Voting Centers across the sixteen regions, is unprecedented in the history of our Party.”
“In addition, the fact that my Polling Agent in the North East region has suffered severe damage to his eyesight, arising from his bold and courageous effort to ensure compliance with the very rules and regulations for the conduct of the elections as approved by the Presidential Elections Committee, will forever remain a dark spot in the history of internal elections within the Party.
“This incident and various acts of violence and collusion, reported in other Voting Centers, are appalling, unconscionable, and despicable. I am committed to, and value the safety of those who work with me and for me, and I will always fight for their interest.”
“I wish all the other Aspirants well as they continue on their journey. I also wish to use this opportunity to express my profound gratitude once again to my family, the Alan 4 President (A4P) Campaign Team, and all my teeming supporters in Ghana and from around the world, who have supported me in diverse ways over the years. Please be assured that the battle is still the Lord’s, and that those who wait upon the Lord shall have their strength renewed”.
