Alan Kyeremateng Refuses To Greet Ex-President Kuffour At A Program.
The escalating political tension between Ghanaian politicians Alan Kyerematen and former President John Agyekum Kufuor has reached a worrying new level, moving beyond public disagreements on television, radio, and social media to real-life encounters. This long-standing rivalry took a dramatic turn during a recent family event, the funeral of one of the children of Mr. Addo Kufuor, the brother of ex-President Kufuor.
The funeral, a somber occasion, drew a large gathering of political figures, with high-profile individuals such as President Akufo-Addo, Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia, Minister of Energy Matthew Opoku Prempeh (Napo), ex-President Kufuor himself, and Alan Kyerematen all in attendance. It was a moment for many to pay respects and show solidarity with the grieving family. However, what could have been a moment of unity turned into a spectacle that fueled the ongoing feud between Kyerematen and the Kufuor camp.
Despite the significant presence of political leaders at the event, the attention of many onlookers shifted to a specific interaction that occurred during the funeral proceedings. In a video that quickly circulated across social media, Alan Kyerematen was seen greeting several of the dignitaries present. As he made his way through the crowd, Kyerematen warmly greeted many of the attendees, including those seated near ex-President Kufuor. However, in a move that surprised many, he deliberately bypassed greeting the former president himself.
This snub, though subtle, has sparked intense debate among political analysts and the public. While it may seem like a minor incident, it is a clear indication of the depth of animosity between Kyerematen and the Kufuor faction within Ghana’s political sphere. The move has drawn attention not only because of its public nature but also due to the significance of the occasion—a funeral, which traditionally serves as a time for reflection, reconciliation, and showing respect.
The video quickly went viral, with numerous social media users sharing their opinions on the matter. Some have criticized Kyerematen for what they perceive as a disrespectful act, while others believe it highlights the intense political rivalry that continues to shape the dynamics of Ghana’s political landscape. It is evident that the rift between Kyerematen and Kufuor is far from being resolved, and this incident has only added fuel to an already volatile situation.
As the political season heats up, with elections and party primaries looming on the horizon, this public display of tension could have lasting implications for both politicians and their respective factions. It remains to be seen how the rivalry will evolve, but for now, the incident at the funeral has undeniably intensified the already fraught relationship between Alan Kyerematen and ex-President Kufuor.
