Minister of Railway Development, John Peter Amewu, had a momentary slip of the tongue when he introduced Alan Kyerematen as the incoming Vice President of Ghana.

Amewu was addressing a large gathering of New Patriotic Party (NPP) supporters at Liberty Park in Dansoman on July 4, 2023, during the presidential flagbearer hopeful's constituency delegates durbar.

As the penultimate speaker before Alan took the stage, Amewu praised Alan's impact and record within the party and his contributions as a member of previous NPP governments.

However, during the formal invitation to Alan to speak, he unintentionally referred to him as the incoming Vice President before quickly correcting himself.

"With all honour and respect, I want to use this opportunity to introduce the incoming Vice President of the Republic of Ghana, in the person of Hon. Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen," he said to cheers.

He swiftly rectified his mistake as Alan approached him, clarifying: "as the incoming president of the Republic of Ghana."

Alan descended from the platform and proceeded to deliver his speech, which contained impassioned segments. He urged the delegates to remain steadfast and courageous, emphasizing that if Ghanaians heeded his words, the government would not have to seek a bailout from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Expressing gratitude, Alan Kyerematen extended his appreciation to the delegates for their unwavering support and the impressive turnout at the event.

He acknowledged their aspirations for power and confidently asserted that he, Alan Kyerematen, was the individual capable of fulfilling those aspirations for the NPP.

"I would like to thank you all, I am very happy for coming in your numbers. God bless you all. And I know that all delegates who are present here are interested in power, and the person who can give you power is me, Alan Kyerematen," he affirmed.
