I Will Modernize NPP – Alan Kyerematen

Presidential hopeful, Alan Kyerematen has promised to modernize the New Patriotic Party (NPP) when given the nod to lead the party at their presidential primaries later this year.

According to the former Trade and Industries minister, he will establish platforms that can generate resources to pay party executives, in order for them concentrate on solely working for the party.

Speaking during a radio programme in Kumasi, Alan Cash, as he is affectionately called, also said he set up a pension scheme for NPP executives who are committed to working for the party.

“There must be a platform and programmes for party financing. I have the record to have set up the Constituency Business Ventures in the past, that is your way of strengthening the party,” he said.

“Full-time party executives must be on full salary to enable them to devote more attention to party work.

“There will be a pension scheme to retired party executives who devote all their time to working for the NPP.

“The focus should be on the party because it is the party that brings the government into power,” he added.
