Former Energy Minister Boakye Agyarko believes Alan Kyerematen’s resignation should signal the party’s need for reflection and not display displaying triumphalist arrogance.
The former minister made the remarks in a statement he issued in reaction to the resignation of the former trade and industry minister.
“The unfortunate departure of Alan Kyerematen from our ranks must serve a necessary and sufficient notice to us all and lead us to a time of deep introspection rather than a time for gloating or the display of triumphalist arrogance.”
The NPP must teach its members that the negative consequences of events since 1951 have deeply impacted their electoral fortunes, as the tradition has always been negative, he posited.
“At least, my brother Kyerematen has put his thoughts and feelings on paper for all to appreciate. How about the many who harbour similar and maybe more petulant sentiments in their hearts but are not openly expressing same. There are many in our party today who have, out of dismay, resigned in their hearts and are only waiting to walk away from us at the ballot box.”
“Now is the time to smoothen ruffled feathers and assuage wounded sentiments across the length and breadth of our party. Now is the time to examine ourselves if indeed we are true and faithful to the tenets and values of the UP tradition or we have metamorphosed into an ugly shadow of what we should be. These must become the urgent task ahead of us,” he stated.
