The founder and leader of the Movement for Change, Hon. Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen has disclosed that, if any Ghanaian want to know the state of Ghana’s economy, then the person should go to the markets.
This came to light when Hon. Alan Kyerematen paid a visit to traders at the Agona Nkwanta and Abenbebom market all in the Western Region.
Interacting with the traders, the Movement for Change Leader pointed out that, wherever he goes since the beginning of his campaign tour, he first visited the markets.
He averred that, Ghanaians bears witnessed to the fact that he used to be with the NPP but now, have decided to form his own party called “Movement for Change”, with the Butterfly as symbol of the Movement.
According to Hon. Kyerematen, the Movement was formed because, it is over 30 years that both the NPP and NDC have been changing power every 8 years yet, Ghana still remains where it is without seeing any improvement in the country and peoples lives.
“The time has come for the people of Ghana to change their voting hands. They need to change for a new person to come. I will build a modern market for you when I become the President. When it rains, you don’t work. When the sun shines too much, you can’t work. Ghana cannot move forward without you the traders”.
The needs of Ghanaian traders Hon. Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen mentioned, are very dear to his heart saying, families of traders always go hungry anytime they don’t make sales in the market.
He therefore assured that, if the traders help him to win the coming 2024 Presidential elections, he would build a modern market for them.
Hon. Kyerematen further re-assured the traders of putting in place, Traders Bank to support them with loans to improve their trading activities and urged them to look for the butterfly when going to cast their votes on December general elections by, voting massively for him to become the President of Ghana.
He however, pledged to do something about the import VAT taxes, by ensuring that, after his first 2 years there would be no duties and taxes but, reduce all taxes at the Port before the 2 year ends.
“When we do this, transport fares will come down. If inflation is reduced, cost of food items will come down. That will ‘ depends on the low cost of transport fares”.
He charged politicians to go beyond seeking only for the interest of their members welfare and rather, think about Ghana first.
Hon. Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen therefore, urged the traders to vote for a Presidential Candidate who can do the work adding that, he has come for the interest of Ghanaians and not party members. “Ghana will move forward when Alan become the President of Ghana”.
