Mrs. Patricia Christabel Kyerematen, the wife of Alan Kyerematen, flagbearer of the Movement for Change, has made a passionate plea to Ghanaians, urging them to support her husband in the upcoming election.
“Alan has a true vision for this country,” she stated sincerely. “I believe with all my heart he will be a great president – one who genuinely cares about the people and is ready to bring real, lasting change.”
Her appeal came during the final day of the movement’s eight-day caravan tour through Accra, which culminated on November 2, 2024, with a historic march that drew a large crowd through the capital.
Throughout the tour, Mrs. Kyerematen, alongside senior members of the Afrafranto Alliance like Director of Special Duties Hopson Adorye, engaged with local chiefs and residents across Osu Korle Klottey, Ayawaso East, and Odododiodio. They paid courtesy visits to community leaders and connected with residents, emphasizing the movement’s commitment to listening to the people.
“It’s important we hear from everyone, especially our traditional authorities and everyday Ghanaians who make this country what it is,” she explained. “This is what Alan stands for – governance that begins with listening.”
On November 2, Alan Kyerematen addressed the crowd with a message of economic hope, promising to address unemployment and stabilize the cedi. “Today, the exchange rate is 17 cedis to the dollar. That is unacceptable,” he said, pledging to bring it below 5 cedis. Mrs. Kyerematen reinforced his message, saying, “Alan has a clear, actionable plan to restore stability and achieve growth. This isn’t just political talk; he’s fully prepared to fix the economy, create jobs, and relieve the burden on families.”
Alan also shared his approach to addressing illegal mining, or Galamsey, combining strict enforcement with a model of responsible mining that allows youth to own small-scale mining ventures. “Alan doesn’t want our youth enslaved to any politician’s agenda; he wants them to see a future in responsible mining,” Mrs. Kyerematen emphasized, drawing cheers from the crowd.
A strong stance on corruption is central to Alan’s Great Transformational Plan. He envisions an independent anti-corruption Czar with the authority to prosecute offenders, a plan Mrs. Kyerematen highlighted as bold and necessary. “Alan knows we cannot progress without tackling corruption. He’s not afraid to take on those who abuse power to enrich themselves, and he will restore integrity to public office.”
The November 2 Walk was a powerful display of support, as streets filled with people eager for change. “What I’ve seen on this tour is inspiring. The outpouring of love and hope for Alan has been incredible,” Mrs. Kyerematen remarked, as supporters in movement colors marched alongside Alan, chanting for a new era in Ghana’s leadership.
“The people want change, and they see it in Alan.” During the tour, youth and community leaders expressed their belief in the movement’s potential, voicing their frustration with the political gimmicks of the NDC and NPP that have left the country struggling.
As the Movement for Change continues its journey, Mrs. Kyerematen is confident in her husband’s leadership. “Alan is ready to serve with integrity and vision. Vote for my husband, and let’s build a brighter future together.”
