His marketability and ability to connect with people from diverse backgrounds have contributed to his popularity among delegates across the country.
Amewu praised Kyerematen's magnetic presence and unwavering dedication to serving the people of Ghana, recognizing him as a true statesman.
Kyerematen's political journey spanning over three decades, including two terms as Minister for Trade and Industry under separate NPP administrations, has equipped him with profound governance and policymaking understanding.
Amewu highlighted Kyerematen's proven track record of effective leadership and successful policy implementation, positioning him as a candidate capable of delivering on his promises and driving sustainable development for Ghana's prosperous future.
The endorsement by Minister Amewu further solidifies Kyerematen's growing acceptability as the preferred candidate to lead the NPP into the 2024 elections.
Kyerematen's vision for a prosperous Ghana aligns with the leadership qualities needed to transform the country into a beacon of progress within Africa and beyond.
