Alan Reveals Potential Partnership With Ghanaian Journalist Komla Dumor In His Presidential Ambitions

The leader of the Movement for Change, Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen has revealed a potential partnership with the late renowned Ghanaian journalist, Komla Dumor in his presidential ambitions.

According to Mr Kyerematen, the late journalist would have been his Vice-Presidential nominee in one of his earlier Presidential Primary bids.

In a social media post commemorating the 10th anniversary of Mr. Dumor’s passing, the former Trade and Industry Minister highlighted that they shared a common birthdate, underscoring their mutual identification as “soul brothers.”

“We shared common perspectives on many issues across various topics. Although he was much younger than me, we communicated as peers due to his maturity and depth of reasoning,” he said.

Mr. Kyerematen stressed that he and Mr. Dumor engaged in stimulating discussions about journalism, public service, and private-sector involvement.

“Komla, you fought a good fight at home in Ghana and around the world. You have left deep footprints that will always remain etched in history. Rest peacefully in the bosom of the Good Lord,” the Movement for Change leader said.
