Reject vote buying political parties – Alan

The Presiden­tial Candidate and leader of the Move­ment for Change, Alan John Kwadwo Kyerematen, has called on Ghanaians to reject political parties that attempt to buy their votes with money in the upcoming December 7 elections.

Speaking to an enthusias­tic crowd of supporters at Obogu in the Asante Akim South Constituency of the Ashanti Region, he described the act of giving money in exchange for votes as a sign of disrespect, urging voters to resist such offers.

“They will come and share things for you to vote for them. They will come with money but think about it twice,” Mr Kyerematen stat­ed, addressing the crowd.

“If after all these years they didn’t come to you and now they are giving you money, it simply shows that they don’t respect you,” he said.

Mr Kyerematen said poli­tics should be about bringing meaningful change to the lives of citizens, not short-term incentives designed to sway votes.

He urged the people of Obogu to carefully assess the development in their com­munities and, if they found it lacking, to vote against the ruling party in the December 7 polls.

“We do politics for the development of the country. We have to change them if the country has not moved forward after they took pow­er,” he added.

Mr Kyerematen took his message of transformation and national progress to the Ashanti Region as part of his campaign tour.

Throughout his tour, Mr Kyerematen consistently focused on the need for eco­nomic growth, job creation, and a renewed focus on the development of Ghana’s rich natural resources.

One of the attendees, a businessman named Osei Boakye, who spoke after hearing Mr Kyerematen speak passionately about Ghana’s slow pace of devel­opment, expressed frus­tration that Ghana, despite its abundance of natural resources, was lagging behind its neighbours.

“We can’t remove our intestines and replace them with cotton wool. Alan, apart from being an Ashanti, has done a lot and has good intentions for this country,” Boakye said.

Mr Kyerematen’s 21-day tour in the Ashanti Region is expected to make a signif­icant impact ahead of the December elections
