CITEG Ghana, a Civil Society Organization (CSO) that believes in the ideologies of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) led by its Founder and President, Alex Kweku Tetteh, has made a strong case for the candidature of Alan Kyeremanteng, as the perfect and next NPP flagbearer to succeed Akufo-Addo in 2024.
According to Mr Tetteh, the NPP flagbearership race has already been settled since delegates already know that Alan stands tall above any other candidate that will seek to contest including Vice President Dr Bawumia.
He revealed that Alan’s loyalty dates back to the days of his father as a true patriot following in the footsteps of Danquah Dombo political tradition.
“Alan’s father supported NPP and President Kufuor including leading members of the NPP leadership are very much aware of this. I am therefore urging Vice President Bawumia to lend his full support to Alan while he waits for a better time to bounce back to the political scene. Kufuor told Akufo-Addo when the NPP won in the year 2000 that Aliu Mahama should be given the chance.
He added, “Akufo-Addo kicked against it and told Kufuor in the face that when you finish your term 8 years, go with your Running Mate so President Akufo-Addo should also exit with his running mate in 2024.”
He recalled that during the 2007 Legon NPP congress to elect the flagbearer, Alan sacrificed and submitted by conceding to save the party needless rounds of voting.
“This is the covenant that Alan created since that time and it still holds so NPP shouldn’t make any mistake by bringing Dr. Bawumia. Alan has contested the NPP race twice and should be given the nod on his 3rd attempt,” the CITEG President and Founder stated.

Gyasi, the name Tetteh if I'm right is not an Ashanti name. Also it is not good to describe a group of people who unflinching support for the npp which I presume you support as repulsive people. I am with you when it comes to the best person to lead our party. Our easiest if not the only pathway to victory in the next election is to elect Bawumia to lead the npp. There will be and there should be primary contest which I'm sure the overwhelming delegates will vote for Bawumia. Let us agree to disagree.
Assuming without admitting that Alan Kyeremanten is the next in line as we are made to believe, he lost that goodwill the moment he resigned from the party less than 7 months to a crucial election. No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God(Luke 9 : 62). There is no difference between Alan Cash and Martin Amidu. They both resigned so as to affect the outcome of an election against the npp. Had all the others resigned, would he have met a vibrant party on his return?
BE OPEN TO ALL AND SUNDRY. THE NPP IS A DEMOCRATIC PARTY NOT MADE OF A ROMANIC HIERARCHY. AS A DEMOCRATIC PARTY ALL QUALIFIED ARE REQUIRED TO STAND AND THE PARTY WILL DECIDE BY VOTING TO SELECT ITS NEXT LEADER TO LEAD THE PARTY TO WIN THE 2024 ELECTIONS SUCCESSFULLY. NOBODY SHOULD BRING ACRIMONY AND HATRED INTO THE PARTY. AMEN
NOBODY can lay claim to 2024 being his or her time. 2024 can be anybody's time. If you use your repulsive Ashanti self-aggrandisement and self-supremacy idiocy to bamboozle the NPP into electing Alan Kyeremanten as flagbearer for 2024, you would receive the MOTHER OF ALL SHOCKS of your lives. Even 30% he won't get.
