Former stalwart of the governing New Patriotic Party NPP, Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen says the movement he formed recently to wrestle for political power in the country is not a political party.

According to the former minister of Trade and Industry, he formed the movement as a vehicle to organize people and resources to battle for the 2024 Presidential polls.

Speaking on Kumasi based OTEC 102.9 FM’s afternoon political show Dwabrem on Tuesday October 3, 2023, Mr Alan Kyerematen  indicated that  he have unique selling propositions as a leader  which are Vision, Competence, Integrity, and Action to change the political status quo by moving Ghana beyond the duopoly of the two main political parties in Ghana; the NPP and NDC.

“What  Ghana needs  is a  new transformational leader and not another political leader, hence the Movement for Change which would be anchored on moving  Ghana beyond the duopoly of NDC and NPP towards a more united government, under which the governance structure will focus on one national agenda”, he explained.

He told the programme host Nii Ardey (Dr Cash) Mr. Kyerematen said he would champion four paradigm shifts which are change the political status quo by moving Ghana beyond the duopoly of the two main political parties in Ghana; the NPP and NDC, promote the establishment of a Government of National Unity, build consensus on a National Development Agenda and inspire behavioural and attitudinal change in the people of Ghana.

Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen on September 25, 2023 resigned from the ruling New Patriotic Party NPP to form Movement for Change to contest political power.

Unveiling the movement, Mr Kyerematen said the brand logo for his movement is the Monarch Butterfly which symbolizes change and transformation, hope and positivity.

Some political analysts have since questioned the former minister whether or not his movement is a political party or not.

Mr Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen responding to this question said the movement is not a political party in disguise.

“To form a political party, the constitution has stipulated some procedures one has to pass through, so I want to state emphatically that, my movement is not a political party”.

“Just as I announced, I am going into 2024 as an independent candidate, but I needed a vehicle to bring my followers together and fight for power”.

According to him, he is in politics because he wants to serve the people of Ghana and that he has proved his worth under two NPP administrations.
