Ghanaian lawyer, Elijah Kwame Owusu Danso, recently revealed his reasons for accepting the position of running mate for Alan Kyerematen, the Presidential Candidate for Movement for Change.
In an interview with Lexis Bill on Joy FM’s ‘Personality Profile, Kwame explained that he decided to join Alan because he resonated with his ideologies, particularly his emphasis on enhancing youth participation in governance.

According to Kwame, the youth have a crucial role to play in determining who leads the country, and it is essential for them to have a seat at the table when discussions about issues that directly affect them are being held.
He commended Alan Kyerematen for his commitment to forming a government of national unity that prioritizes the well-being of all Ghanaians, regardless of their political affiliations, religious beliefs, or ethnic backgrounds.
Despite facing criticism from some members of the public, who referenced his past involvement in the music industry, Kwame views his appointment as Alan’s running mate as an opportunity to amplify his voice and contribute to meaningful change in the country.
