Movement for Change (Ghana)

The Movement for Change (M4C) is a political group founded by Alan John Kyerematen. The group was started in September 2023 after Kyerematen withdrew from the New Patriotic Party's flagbearership race to contest as an independent candidate in the 2024 Ghanaian general election. The Movement’s logo features the Monarch Butterfly (Afrafranto in Akan), symbolizing political change, transformation, hope, and positivity. As a leader, I draw inspiration from the butterfly’s representation of strength, endurance, spirituality, and trust. The Movement’s motto, “Ghana Will Rise Again,” reflects a hopeful vision for the nation's future. The Movement for Change (M4C) is a political organization whose establishment was inspired by the overwhelming demand by Ghanaians from all walks of life for change and to transform Ghana into a prosperous, united, and peaceful nation.
