Kate Gyamfua, the National Women’s Organizer of the New Patriotic Party
The National Women’s Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kate Gyamfua, has warned Alan Kyerematen about the repercussions of his decision to contest the 2024 elections as an independent candidate.
Speaking in an interview on Peace FM’s Kokrokoo Show on May 3, 2024, she highlighted what she perceived as Alan’s ingratitude towards the party that had nurtured his political career for over a decade and a half.
She emphasized that Alan’s departure to form his movement amounts to a betrayal.
“If I see an NPP member who has abandoned the party I get worried, look at the people who have gone to form the Afranfranto Movement.
“During President Kufuor’s time, you were a minister for 8 years, and during Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo‘s tenure, you served as a minister for seven years. That’s a total of 15 years. And yet, you just turn your back on the party because the members didn’t vote for you during the primaries.
“Not that you were cheated or Bawumia went unopposed and you just decided to stand against your government. Karma is real and God will judge us all.
She addressed what she perceived as a sense of entitlement on Alan’s part.
She attributed his decision to contest as an independent to a belief that he deserved the party’s highest position by virtue of his long-standing tenure within its ranks.
“Alan was overly pampered in the party, like a baby, that made him feel as if he is entitled to the seat. But even royal positions are fought for,” she added.
She added that she hoped Alan Kyerematen would return to the party.
