From Team Alan Dateline Accra 16th June 2010

Thu, 17 Jun 2010 Source: --

TEAM ALAN has noted with surprise, claims in a publication circulated to the media that Mr. Alan John Kwadwo Kyerematen was prevented from entering Yendi on his extended campaign tour of the three northern regions.

This is to categorically refute any such spurious claims. To help clarify matters, Team Alan was advised by the Chairman of the Yendi Constituency of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) that due to heightened tension in the Municipality, it would not be prudent to have a political meeting within Yendi at the time.

Respecting the imperative of law and order and in the interest of peace and unity, Team Alan voluntarily decided to postpone the scheduled meeting. At no point was Team Alan compelled or coerced by any person or group not to go into Yendi.

Furthermore, Team Alan takes this opportunity to refute another story that Mr. Kyerematen’s meeting in Tamale Central Constituency was disrupted by thugs. On the contrary, Team Alan had a very successful meeting in Tamale at the Centre for National Culture where party delegates from Tamale Central, Tamale North and Tamale South constituencies met the Aspirant consecutively.

Team Alan is grateful to the media generally for their singularly impressive coverage of the campaign so far. Going forward, we are confident that continuing reportage of the campaign will be even better. It is in that belief that Team Alan thanks its media partners for seeking timely clarification on the above issues.
