In a recent turn of events, Chairman Wontumi, the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), issued an order to remove all posters of former party member Alan Kyerematen from party offices in the region, citing Kyerematen's departure from the party as the reason for the directive.

However, Alan Kyerematen, in response to this decision, expressed his lack of concern regarding the removal of his posters but took issue with the person behind the request.

Alan Kyerematen, during an interview on the 'Mpu Ne Mpu' segment on UTV, made his sentiments clear. He began by questioning the origin of the order, saying, "It's not a problem.

You say it's from Wontumi? You say it's from the chairman, Wontumi? Who brought Wontumi into the party? Ask him." Kyerematen went on to recount the history of his involvement in Wontumi's political journey, highlighting his role in introducing Wontumi to the NPP.

Kyerematen reminisced about his interactions with Wontumi in 2005 when he was going to Kumasi. He recalled how Wontumi, at that time a small-time businessman, approached him and expressed his willingness to support Kyerematen's political aspirations after observing his vision and approach to politics.

Initially doubting Wontumi's sincerity, Kyerematen soon realized Wontumi's commitment when he continued to seek his help.

Kyerematen shared that he liked young, courageous people and inquired about Wontumi's constituency, eventually helping him become a chairman. He further promoted Wontumi within the party, making him a regional chairman due to his hard work and dedication.

However, Kyerematen expressed his disappointment in Wontumi's recent actions, suggesting that Wontumi should be more cautious. He reminded Wontumi that betraying someone who had helped him succeed was not the right course of action.

While acknowledging Wontumi's right to support other candidates, Kyerematen emphasized that launching an open campaign against him was unnecessary and advised Wontumi to act fairly as the regional chairman.

Kyerematen concluded his response by stating that he had no objections to the removal of his posters, as he was no longer an aspirant in the party. He assured that there were "no fears" on his part regarding the poster removal.

"If he says they should take my posters down, I do not have anything to say about it because I am no longer an aspirant in the party. So if my posters are supposed to be removed, then that is okay. No fears," Mr Kyerematen said.

Chairman Wontumi's decision to remove Alan Kyerematen's posters came after an earlier interview on his radio station, Wontumi FM, where he made statements about Kyerematen's past associations and his view that Kyerematen's resignation was ill-advised.Wontumi claimed that Kyerematen had benefited greatly from the NPP and implied that his departure from the party was ungrateful.
