Quotes

[edit]
  • Fellow countrymen and women, if by the will of God and through your goodwill, I am voted first, as the flagbearer of the NPP and subsequently as President of the Republic in the next general elections, I will become the transformational leader of our time, who will build on the foundations laid by successive leaders of our nation over the last sixty-five (65) years
  • The current challenges that confront our economy will hopefully be a thing of the past. I want to assure you that if through your blessings and prayers, your own son becomes the leader of our party and subsequently the President of this country, I will bring the economy back to life. It will not be through my effort but by the grace and mercy of Allah

After declaring his intention to resign from NPP and set up his movement, as quoted by myjoyonline.com My cabinet will be made of 60% youth – Alan Kyerematen
  • And the important thing to note is that because my movement is led by the youth and powered by the youth, I have made a commitment that 60% of my cabinet ministers and government appointees will be young people
  • And 50% of those occupying senior positions will be women. So I’m just a transition candidate. My interest is to bring young people and women in particular to the centre of our governance structure
  • I want us to have a united governance mechanism and structure so that in parliament, you’ll have ministers who I have appointed from NPP, you have ministers who I have appointed from NDC, from CPP, people who are apolitical and I believe that they have the competence and the talent to help Ghana, they’re part of my cabinet so we think together
  • It’s one national agenda. So the national agenda is the great transformational plan. So we all work together and if we have programmes we take it to parliament. In parliament, there’s no basis for quarrel because the representatives of NPP in cabinet are there.
  • I am promoting a government of national unity where people from all walks of life; rich, poor, young, old, abled, disabled or physically challenged, people from the business community, people from media, people from academia, those who have something to offer to our country
