John Dramani Mahama, the presidential candidate for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the 2024 elections, is currently ahead of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the candidate for the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), according to a national opinion poll by Global InfoAnalytics.
Mussa Dankwa, the Executive Director of Global InfoAnalytics, explained that the economy is the most significant factor influencing voter decisions for the upcoming 2024 elections.
He mentioned that if Ghanaians were satisfied with the state of the economy, they would likely support the NPP and Dr. Bawumia.
However, since many Ghanaians are experiencing economic difficulties, the NDC and John Mahama are leading in the polls.
In an interview on Ahotor FM‘s morning show ‘Adekyee Mu Nsem‘ with host Nana Dogbe, Mussa Dankwa stated that the Global InfoAnalytics poll accurately reflects the current situation in Ghana.
He cautioned Ghanaians against relying too heavily on internal polls conducted by political parties, as these are often biased and not always reliable.
Mussa Dankwa further noted that those who are dissatisfied with the economy are inclined to vote for John Mahama and the NDC, while those who believe the economy is doing well are likely to support Dr. Bawumia and the NPP.
He emphasized that John Mahama is currently the frontrunner for the 2024 elections due to the widespread economic hardships affecting many Ghanaians.
In conclusion, Mr. Dankwa highlighted that people across all regions of Ghana are facing economic challenges, which is why Mahama is leading in the Global InfoAnalytics poll.
