Mr Alan Kyerematen, the leader and presidential candidate of the Afrafranto Alliance, is poised to lead the much-anticipated “Afrafranto Mega Victory Walk” in Kumasi on Saturday, 19th October, 2024.
This event marks the grand finale of his successful Caravan Campaign Tour in his home region, the Ashanti Region.
The walk will begin at the iconic Kumasi Culture Centre, a landmark established by his late father, Alexander Atta Yaw Kyerematen and end at the Kumasi City Mall, a route designed to reflect his deep connection to the people and heritage of the Ashanti Kingdom.
A statement issued by the campaign team yesterday, said Alan Kyerematen has built a reputation for organising some of the largest political walks in Ghana’s history.
His previous “Aduru Wo So” Health Walks in both Kumasi and Accra, as well as the “Afrafranto Yellow Walk” in Kumasi, drew record-breaking crowds.
These events, according to the statement, have become symbolic of his massive grassroots appeal, with thousands of Ghanaians participating in demonstrations of solidarity and support. The Afrafranto Mega Victory Walk is expected to exceed these past events in scale, as anticipation builds across the Ashanti Region.
“Supporters of Alan Kyerematen, in the region, who regard him as one of the most distinguished prominent sons of the Asante soil, are preparing to pour onto the streets in their numbers. The walk is expected to attract hundreds of thousands of participants, turning Kumasi into a sea of yellow, as they show their unwavering support for Mr. Kyerematen’s presidential bid. Many see the event as not only a political rally, but also a celebration of the Afrafranto Movement and its message of hope and transformation for Ghana.
“The Kumasi Culture Centre, where the walk will commence, holds a special place in the hearts of many Asantis due to its historical significance. Built by Mr. Kyerematen’s father, the centre represents a key contribution to the cultural preservation of the Asante Kingdom, making it a fitting starting point for this symbolic event. As the crowd marches to the Kumasi City Mall, they will be reminded of the deep roots and heritage that Mr. Kyerematen brings to his leadership of the Afrafranto Alliance.
“With the Afrafranto Mega Victory Walk, Alan Kyerematen aims to reinforce his message of transformation and victory as the 2024 elections approach. His ability to galvanize such large numbers has positioned him as a formidable force in the upcoming election, with the Ashanti Region serving as a crucial stronghold for his campaign.
“The walk is set to be a defining moment in his bid for the presidency, demonstrating the powerful connection between Mr. Kyerematen and his supporters.”
