Nana Akomea, a prominent figure in the New Patriotic Party (NPP), recently revealed that internal research conducted by the party in February 2024 predicted former President John Dramani Mahama’s victory in the upcoming general elections. Akomea, a key member of the NPP, disclosed that their internal polling indicated Mahama was on track to win, sparking a wave of discussion within Ghana’s political landscape.
The research conducted by the NPP’s internal polling team analyzed various political dynamics, including voter sentiment, party popularity, and key issues influencing the electorate. According to Akomea, the party’s findings painted a troubling picture, showing that Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), had a strong chance of winning the election. This revelation has led to questions about the NPP’s strategy in the run-up to the 2024 elections.
Akomea emphasized that the NPP’s early recognition of this trend has led them to review their campaign approach. In light of these findings, the NPP is reportedly strategizing to address the factors that might be contributing to Mahama’s surge in popularity. This includes focusing on areas where the party’s performance could be improved and developing a clearer message to appeal to the Ghanaian electorate.
The disclosure also adds an element of surprise, as it challenges the often-held belief that the NPP had a more favorable standing in the polls. Despite the internal findings, the NPP remains confident that it can turn the tide in its favor, using the months leading up to the election to address key issues and engage with voters.
With the election fast approaching, the NPP’s internal research has certainly put the party on alert. The prediction of a Mahama victory has now become a focal point for the NPP’s campaign strategy as it seeks to maintain power in the face of a strong challenge from its main rival. As the election draws nearer, both parties are intensifying efforts to win over the crucial undecided voters.
