Massive reactions have accompanied Alan Kyerematen’s act of ‘pulling out’ of the NPP flagbearership race and celebrities have also waded into the ongoing discussion.

“In light of the foregoing, I wish to confirm that I am honorably withdrawing from the process that will lead to the Presidential Primaries to be held on the 4th of November 2023. In the next upcoming weeks, I will provide an indication of the role that I will play in politics in Ghana, after consultations with my family and other well-wishers, various stakeholders and interest groups,” parts of the press statement read.

Mr. Kyerematen who placed third in the party’s August 26 special delegates conference said he opted out of the race following the intimidation of agents.

He also said the race seems to be deliberately structured to favour one of the candidates.

However, some netizens have insisted that he should have persevered to the end, while others have supported his decision.

Celebrities including Serwaa Amihere, Afia Schwarzenegger, Nana Aba Anamoah, and others have also shared their varied responses to the development.

Alan's story in the NPP can be summarized as unmet potential but his reasons for quiting the flagbearer race make for interesting analysis
