Alan Kyerematen, head of the Movement for Change and an independent presidential contender, has called himself the leader Ghana requires at this critical time.
Speaking on the Citi Breakfast Show, Mr Kyerematen underlined his cross-party appeal, establishing himself as the ideal presidential candidate.
“I am the president Ghana needs at this time. When you have a divided country, you need somebody who resonates with people from different political parties, whether it is the NDC or the NPP,” Kyerematen remarked.
He further noted that a significant number of people within his former party, the NPP, still support him and would prefer him as president over any other candidate.
“Even now that I’ve left the NPP, I can tell the majority of the rank and file that the NPP will still prefer me as president; they still love me, and there is no doubt about that. This is because they know the contributions I have made not only to the formation of the NPP but also to the country,” he stated.
Kyerematen reiterated his confidence in his ability to improve the lives of Ghanaians, including those within the NPP.
“Even the rank and file of the party, and the majority of them know my worth, and they know that if I am president, their lives would be better than any other person.
