Election 2024: Alan hailed as ‘Second Father’ of Volta Region after Rawlings”

An independent presidential candidate, Alan Kyerematen, has been described as the ‘Second Father” of the region after the late Jerry John Rawlings.

This accolade was accorded to Alan and his team when he was warmly embraced by residents of the Volta Region during his campaign tour.

This title, the people explained, was their way of honouring Alan Kyerematen’s vision, humility, and unwavering commitment to the region’s development.

Alan Kyerematen was accompanied by the Policy Director, Yaw Buabeng Asamoah; his Director for Special Duties, Hopeson Adorye; Senior Alliance partners, Madam Tina Cudjoe and Richard Suma; and other senior members of his team.

The heartfelt reception moved Alan Kyerematen deeply, as he expressed gratitude for the affection shown him.

“The love I have received here is beyond what I imagined. To be referred to as your second father is a profound honour, and I promise to repay this trust by delivering a transformational agenda that will uplift this region and the entire country.”

The residents, particularly women and youth in the region, lauded Alan Kyerematen for his practical solutions in his Great Transformational Plan (GTP).

“Our region has waited for a leader who truly understands our potential. Alan Kyerematen’s commitment to agriculture, fishing, and eco-tourism shows he sees us as part of Ghana’s solution, not just a political tool. This is why we call him our second father,” a trader stated.

Alan Kyerematen urged the voters to reject claims that an independent candidate cannot win a presidential election in Ghana.

“Across the country, Ghanaians are ready for change. The love and support I’ve seen here is the same wherever I go, and it gives me confidence that we will win this election. Ignore the propaganda of the NDC and NPP. They are afraid because they know the people are with me,” he stated.

The former Trade and Industry Minister highlighted examples of independent leaders around the world, including George Washington in America, Emmanuel Macron in France, and Patrice Talon in Benin, who have led their nations to success.

“This election is about leadership, not party colours. Together, we can rewrite Ghana’s story.”
