Alan Kyerematen unveils the Great Transformational Plan (GTP)

Aspiring flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party, Alan John Kwadwo Kyerematen, has outlined a five-year strategic plan which he describes as Great Transformational Plan (GTP) to develop Ghana.

Addressing the nation Tuesday night, the former Trade and Industry Minister called on Ghanaians to make bold sacrifices in preparation for a promising future.

The Plan, which is expected to span from 2025 to 2030, he said, assures the attainment of an independent future.

The seven pillars of his plan, he itemised in his address to Ghanaians, are; the primacy of the Private Sector in our national development agenda, attitude to work and enforcement of discipline, corruption and petty theft or thievery, the arrogance of power, passion for excellence, focus more on getting things done than talking, and the too divisive nature of politics in Ghana.

The primacy of the Private Sector in our national development agenda. The Government’s focus must be to facilitate the process of making our private sector competitive, by creating an enabling environment for businesses.

"Attitude to work and enforcement of discipline. We as a people should appreciate the need for discipline in all spheres of our national lives and change our attitude to work.  It is your duty to ensure that you earn your living from the efforts of your labour.

Corruption and petty theft or thievery, particularly from the public purse, deny our country the benefit of utilizing its tax revenue and other resources for the development of our country.

The arrogance of power has been a major obstruction to progress in our country.  In servant leadership, humility is an asset and not a weakness.

Passion for excellence. As a country we must celebrate competence and excellence and not mediocrity.

As a people, we must focus more on getting things done than talking. Ghana is gradually becoming a NATO country – “No Action Talk Only”. What Ghana needs now are solutions and actions not debates.

And last but not the least, our politics in Ghana is too divisive. This keeps out some of our best talents in offering themselves for political appointments,” parts of his speech read.

The politician also used the platform to officially announce his Presidential dreams with the confirmation of his availability for the upcoming NPP presidential primaries. He pledged to be a transformational leader if given the mandate first within the NPP and Ghanaian voters at large.

“If by the will of God and through your goodwill, I am voted first, as the flagbearer of the NPP and subsequently as President of the Republic in the next general elections, I will become the transformational leader of our time, who will build on the foundations laid by successive leaders of our nation over the last 65 years.

“To achieve this strategic goal of transforming our dear country to become the shining star of the new Africa, I will as President, launch and lead the execution of the Great Transformational Plan (GTP) of Ghana which will span the period 2025 to 2030”, the outgoing Trade and Industry Minister confirmed.

Mr Kyerematen tendered in his resignation letter as Trade and Industry Minister on Thursday January 5, 2023, which has since been accepted by President Akufo-Addo.
