One of the campaign spokesperson for Alan Kyerematen has asked the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and his team to be moderate in celebrating their victory during the NPP's Super Delegates Conference.
Sylvester Tetteh says their joy will be short-lived as Mr Kyerematen will win the main flagbearer elections.
Speaking on Metro TV on Thursday, August 31, Mr Tetteh said in the event that the Vice President wins the contest, he will need all party faithful to be able to win the general elections.
"I congratulate the vice president and his team for taking a giant lead, but they should be moderate in their celebration because this is less than 1% of the people who are going to cast their votes in November and if they are listening carefully after the elections, the base is not well. So 0.46% not even 0.5% of the people cannot decide who becomes our flagbearer."

The Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, came first in the New Patriotic Party’s Super Delegates Congress.
The congress was organised to elect five presidential aspirants to contest the party’s primaries in November this year.
This was after 10 candidates picked up forms to contest the central presidential primaries scheduled for November 4.
After the collation of 17 out of the 17 polling centres across the country, the Vice President came out on top with 68.15% of the total votes cast, followed by the MP for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong who garnered 14.3% of the total votes cast.
Former Trades Minister, Alan Kyerematen came third with 10.29% of the total votes cast, and former Agric Minister, Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto came fourth with 3.90%.
There was however a tie as Francis Addai Nimoh and former Energy Minister, Boakye Agyarko, both got 0.98 percent of the total votes cast.
