The Director of Special Duties for the Movement for Change, Hopeson Adorye has challenged claims that some six thousand members of the movement have defected to the ruling New Patriotic Party.

According to Hopeson, only three people to the best of his knowledge have defected.

“Only three people have left. The six thousand they are claiming, I am challenging them to provide data. It is true they were reaching out to people to join them but they all turned them down. I am telling you; I can provide some of them to come to your studio and speak. They called people to come, and they all turned them down.

At a press conference held on Monday, April 22, 2024, Alfred Ababio Kumi, a former NPP parliamentary candidate for Adenta who had joined the Movement for Change, announced that he is leading some six thousand members back to the NPP.

While declaring the group's renewed support for the NPP and its flagbearer ahead of the 2024 general election, Kumi emphasised that his group had come to a realisation that leaving the NPP was a mistake in the first place.

However, according to Hopeson Adorye, the claim of Movement for Change led by Alan Kyerematen losing six thousand members is one that cannot be supported with evidence.

“Six thousand from where? If you claim six thousand have defected you must have data to prove it.. they are very aware Movement for Change engages in a voluntary recruitment process through our website www.alankyerematen .com...

“We have so far recruited over a million people who joined the movement voluntarily,” he stated.
