Sammy Gyamfi thinks Alan Kyerematen is not a viable alternative to the failed incumbent NPP government.
“As a Cabinet Minister responsible for Trade and Industry and a member of the Economic Management team from 2017-2023, Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen actively participated in the destruction of the economy into the mess it is today,” he stated.
He said “Under his watch, the Komenda Sugar Factory was abandoned to rot for almost six (6) years. Growth of the manufacturing sector declined significantly and businesses were suffocated by the bad policies of his Ministry and government leading to several job losses.”
He however agrees to the school of thought that the NPP had not dealt well with Alan.

“It is an indisputable fact, that Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen has not been treated fairly by his party, the NPP”.
Sammy Gyamfi opines that the NPP under the leadership of President Akufo-Addo has never been truly democratic.
“There is no way Alan could have gotten a modicum of fairness or justice in the ongoing presidential primaries of the NPP”.
Sammy Gyamfi, says however, that, he understands Alan’s pain and empathizes with him as he and his supporters have continuously been victims of intimidation, unprovoked harassment and violence.
“His resignation from the NPP is therefore understandable,” he stated.
