Alan Kyerematen withdrew from the 2024 NPP Presidential Candidate Race, based on the following.
- He believes that the special delegates conference was strategically and tactically skewed in favour of one particular aspirant.
- He cites the pronouncement made by some leading members of the party both before and after the elections as evidence of this.
- He also notes that the level of intimidation of delegates was unprecedented in the history of the party.
- In addition, his pulling agent in the Northeast region suffered severe damage to his eyesight as a result of his efforts to ensure compliance with the rules and regulations for the conduct of the elections.
- Kyerematen is committed to the safety of those who work with him and for him, and he will always fight for their interests.
- He is concerned about the path the party is on and is not convinced that the circumstances he has referred to will not persist or even be escalated in the next round of elections.
