Limited time forced me to contest 2024 election as independent candidate — Alan Kyerematen
United Party (UP) leader Alan John Kwadwo Kyerematen says the limited time available before the 2024 general election influenced his decision to contest the presidential race as an independent candidate rather than establish a fully-fledged political party.
Mr Kyerematen announced his resignation from the NPP in September 2023 and subsequently declared his intention to contest the 2024 presidential election as an independent candidate under the Movement for Change.
In his September 2023 declaration, he said the Movement for Change was intended to challenge Ghana’s established two-party political system and promote an alternative centred on political and economic transformation.
