Alan John Kwadwo Kyerematen’s newly rebranded United Party has rejected suggestions that former members who broke away from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) could be granted “amnesty” to return to the party.o
National Chairman of the United Party said, “We were sacked from the NPP, but now they want to grant us amnesty? We will not go back,” he declared to loud cheers from party supporters.
Siddique argued that the NPP had no moral ground to offer forgiveness when, according to him, no crime had been committed to warrant their expulsion in the first place.
“We were sacked. But today they claim they are giving us amnesty. What does amnesty mean? What crime did our leader commit? What crime did I commit in the NPP for you to sack me? And today you are telling me you are giving me amnesty. No way,” he said.
Drawing an analogy to Islamic marriage, the National Chairman stressed that their break from the NPP was final.
“When you divorce a woman three times in Islam, she’s no longer your wife until kingdom come,” he added, amid applause.
Alan Kyerematen, a former Trade and Industry Minister, resigned from the NPP in 2023 to form the Movement for Change. A party he has rebranded under the name United Party.
His decision followed growing tensions within the governing party over internal leadership contests and what he described as unfair treatment.
