The Member of Parliament for Yendi, Farouk Aliu Mahama has said flag bearer hopeful for the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Alan Kyerematen will be a nice Minister under Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as Ghana’s President.
Speaking to Starr News, the lawmaker indicated that the “it’s my turn” mantra being used by the former Trade Minister has been shot down.
According to him, none of the aspirants can claim that he has suffered for the NPP more than the other adding that the candidate who has suffered most will be determined by the delegates.
“Alan is somebody who is very respected and who has carried himself well, very intelligent. We will need him to become a Minister under Bawumia. But there shouldn’t be a yardstick for you to say that you have suffered.
“The Vice President has suffered for the party,he has been an existing, important creature in the space of Ghanaian politics for the last sixteen years. He didn’t win for almost ten years and he patiently waited. So for Alan to say it’s my turn mantra, such a mantra has been shot down. Because Apreku too is senior to Alan and when you say suffering we’ve all suffered. Bawumia has also suffered, Alan too, all of them but the suffering will be determined by the delegates,” Mr. Aliu Mahama stated.
However, the member of the Alan Kyerematen campaign communication team, Richard Nyamah has said delegates should disregard comments by the Member of Parliament for Yendi, Farouk Aliu Mahama since he is a novice in politics.
However, speaking on Morning Starr with Francis Abban, the Campaign spokesperson indicated that the lawmaker does not deserve a response.
“Farouk Aliu Mahama is my junior brother, he is new to politics, he does understand what he is doing and saying so I’m not going to glorify what he said. His father was a politician, he just got into Parliament.
“He doesn’t have the experience and gravitas to say some of the things he is saying. He is just saying them because he needs to be heard. It is his opinion, I won’t glorify him with a response.”
