New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful Alan Kyerematen , on Monday July 17, assured the people of the Volta region of his preparedness to take up the mantle of late President Jerry John Rawlings as their godfather should they support him to win the presidency.
Mr. Kyerematen, in his address to delegates from various constituencies across the region, urged delegates in the region to give him their unflinching support in the November NPP primaries, and eventually, in the 2024 elections to become President of the nation.

Alan Cash believes that, given the opportunity, he can continue with the positive role the late President played in the development of the Region.
Acknowledging wild cheers from the delegates at Sogakope, Mr Kyerematen said, although the Volta Region is seen as a ‘no go area’ for the NPP, he was sure the political dynamics would change, after he has been elected to lead the NPP as he was convinced of the peoples love for him.
The former Minister for Trade and Industry urged delegates to vote for a leader who has been tried and tested, and had nationwide appeal, to enable the NPP to ‘break the eight’, and not the one who could only become flagbearer of the party but fail to win the national elections.
To wild applause, Hon Kyerematen said he remains the only candidate in the NPP who can march the NDC ‘boot-for-boot’ even in their stronghold of Volta region.
