Alan announced his resignation from the NPP on that day and his subsequent plan to contest in the 2024 polls as an independent candidate.

“Some people planned to form their own parties after losing internal primaries. Alan is the most gentleman you will find in this country and I support Alan 100%,” Boniface stressed.
