The Founder and Leader of the Movement for Change, Alan John Kwadwo Kyerematen in a scathing critique has strongly chastised the two leading political parties in the country, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP), for being responsible for the country’s economic woes and lack of progress.
The former leading Member of the governing New Patriotic Party in a bold and impassioned call to action, urged Ghanaian to patronize his political force, the Alliance for Revolutionary Change in the upcoming general elections.
In his statement, Mr Kyerematen lamented the long-standing blame-game politics between the opposition National Democratic Congress and the ruling New Patriotic, highlighting its detrimental impact on Ghana’s development trajectory.
Citing what he describes as a loss of hope among the populace and a crisis of confidence in the country’s democratic system, Mr Kyerematen touted the Movement for Change and its political force group, the Alliance for Revolutionary Change as the beacon of hope for all citizens yearning for substantive progress.
“The divisiveness in our body politics driven by the duopoly of the two dominant parties, the NPP and NDC has been the major destabilizing factor for progress in Ghana. We will work with every Ghanaian who has the capacity, will and determination to transform Ghana. Together we will fight to build the Ghana we deserve”.

The core tenets of the Movement for Change and the Alliance for Revolutionary Change according to Mr Kyerematen revolve around the principles of credibility, accountability, integrity, unity, and competence in leadership.
