Flagbearer hopeful of the main opposition New Patriotic Party, Alan Kyeremanten, says the party needs to present a �modest� person as flagbearer for the 2016 general elections. According to him, �we need to understand the Ghanaian voter psychology, particularly, in presidential elections,� wondering: �What are Ghanaians looking for in a President?� Answering his own question while speaking to Paul Adom Otchere on Metro TV�s Good Evening Ghana programme, Mr Kyeremanten explained that: �When I talk about understanding the voter psychology - we should not look at this in a negative sense - maybe Ghanaians are looking for somebody who has a moderate disposition, you know, has maybe a certain orientation which Ghanaians are interested in. It could be anything.� The former trade minister said the party must therefore do a scientific analysis to gauge the mood about what Ghanaians want in a President since that will help the NPP elect someone who would be accepted by the voter population. Mr Kyeremanten run against two-time flagbearer Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo but failed. He intends making a third attempt at the flagbearer slot.
