NPP Presidential Primaries: Alan’s camp wants early congress
In an interview with the Ghana News Agency, Mr Yaw Buaben Asamoa, Spokesperson for Mr Kyerematen’s Campaign, said the Camp would prefer the presidential primaries to be held in either August or September this year. The NPP is yet to announce a date for its presidential and parliamentary primaries. Mr Kyerematen, who has been working towards becoming President since 207, resigned as Minister of Trade and Industry last month to pursue his presidential ambition. In that address, Mr Kyerematen said the country required a new plan to build a self-reliant economy to avoid going back to the International Monetary Fund in future. “Everywhere we have been, there is the feeling that Mr Kyerematen is the right man in the right place for the right job,” he said.
