A member of the Alan for President campaign team, Hopeson Adorye has hinted that the Trade and Industry Minister, Alan Kyerematen will consider resigning from his current position and pursue his dreams of leading the New Patriotic Party in 2024 if the economy stabilizes.
Mr Adorye made this known in an interview on Accra 100.5 FM on Wednesday, November 16, 2022.
According to him, Mr Kyerematen has a role to play in ensuring Ghana’s economy is brought back on track.
He added that the Trade and Industry Minister cannot afford to put his ambitions ahead of the overall interest of the party going into the next elections.
He said the party, and for that matter, the government’s successes will be the vehicle Mr Kyerematen will run on as flagbearer for the 2024 general elections.
Mr Adorye also admitted there have been calls from all quarters pushing for the Minister to resign from the government to pursue his dreams of leading the party to break the eight.
“Even last night, I had calls from as far as the Upper East and Upper West Regions seeking answers to why Alan was still part of the government when he is supposed to be campaigning to make his ambitions of leading the party a reality,” he revealed.
“Alan Kyerematen is not resigning now because as a country we are in crisis and all hands are needed on deck,” he explained.
According to Hopeson Adorye, the trade minister will humbly tender his resignation if the party opens nominations for the position of flagbearer.
