Founding Father of the New Patriotic Party(NPP), Dr.Nyaho Tamakloe has advised former Presidential Aspirant, John Kwadwo Alan Kyerematen to contest the 2024 general election as Independent Candidate.
According to him, this would help Mr.Kyerematen test his popularity.
Speaking in an interview with TV3 New Day morning show on Wednesday, he said “Alan Kyerematen should contest the general election as Independent Candidate to test his popularity.”
Dr. Nyaho Tamakloe believes that Alan Kyerematen would have been a better candidate to salvage the NPP, however a militia put in place by the government has worked against him.
According to Alan Kyerematen should have know this and resigned from the government long time.
Alan Kyerematen surprisingly pulled out yesterday from the party’s final flagbearer election slated for November 4,2023.
In a statement the former Trade and Industries minister revealed that the Special Delegates Conference was strategically and tactically skewed in favour of one particular candidate.
Mr Kyerematen placed third in the NPP Super Delegates Congress held on Saturday, August 26, when he polled 95 votes representing 10.82 per cent of the total votes cast in the election won by the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia who won 629 votes, representing 68.15 per centof the total valid votes.

Many SOEs have been used as mere instruments for personal wealth accumulation –Pres.Mahama
President John Dramani Mahama has expressed concern over the misuse of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) for personal financial gain by individuals in leadership positions.
Speaking during a meeting with Chief Executives of specified entities under the State Interest and Governance Authority (SIGA) on Thursday, March 13, the President directly attributed the dire state of SOEs to their leadership, accusing chief executives, management teams, and governing boards of prioritising personal enrichment over organisational efficiency.
He pointed to bloated budgets, unjustified allowances, and unnecessary expenditures as factors draining public funds while SOEs continue to rely on government bailouts.
“Many SOEs have been used as mere instruments for personal wealth accumulation by appointees. The chief executives, management, and boards of these enterprises are responsible for this situation. Some SOEs have become perennial loss-makers, draining public funds with bloated budgets, unjustified allowances, and unnecessary expenditures while relying on government bailouts as if entitled to them. Many of these entities are at their lowest point in the entire history of the Fourth Republic,” he said.
President Mahama further noted that many SOEs have been plagued by inefficiencies, corruption, and mismanagement, leading to consistent financial losses. He cited the 2023 State Ownership Report by the State Interests and Governance Authority (SIGA), which highlighted systemic inefficiencies and wasteful expenditures within these entities.
He therefore reaffirmed his commitment to reforming under-performing SOEs and ensuring they serve national interests.
He warned that loss-making SOEs will no longer be tolerated and will either be merged, privatised, or closed.
“I will assess you based on your performance. If you do not align with the pace of the reset agenda, you may be asked to step aside. If that adds to the horror movie, so be it,” he added.
