Frederick Opare-Ansah, a member of Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s campaign team, has suggested that Alan Kyerematen’s resignation from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) stemmed from his dissatisfaction with his third-place finish in the party’s super delegates conference.
In an interview with Citi TV on Tuesday, October 31, the former Suhum MP said Alan’s claims that unfairness in the organisation of the race led to his resignation, were blown out of proportion.
Opare-Ansah also pointed out that it was reported that agents representing Alan Kyerematen were involved in causing disruptions at one of the conference centres.
According to him, “From what I heard, he was unhappy about the position he received, but that, in my opinion, shouldn’t have been the way he chose to exit the NPP.”
He added, “I have also listened to what happened, and in fact, the attack was initiated by his agent going out of his way to take on a function that is not his own.”
During the New Patriotic Party’s super delegates conference, Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia secured victory with 629 votes (68.15%), followed by Kennedy Agyapong with 132 votes. Alan Kyerematen came in third with 95 votes (10.29%).
Alan announced his resignation from the NPP on September 25, citing skewed and unfair processes.
However, Opare-Ansah insisted that Alan’s concerns were not substantial and that he could have waited for a proper investigation before taking further action.
Meanwhile, the party goes to the polls on Saturday, November 4, 2023, to elect a flagbearer for Election 2024.
