The Bureau of Election Command (BEC) has released findings of its survey which tips former President John Dramani Mahama as the next President of Ghana.
The survey conducted across the 16 regions of the country saw him leading prospective presidential candidates, including Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen- both of the New Patriotic Party (NPP)- and the National Democratic Congress (NDC’s) Dr Kwabena Duffour with 48%.
A total of 11,071 respondents were interviewed during the data collection process under the mixed-method research approach. Of that number, 5,272 respondents representing 48% said they would approve the ex-president to be their next leader when the nation goes to the polls in 2024.
The BEC’s report sighted by Angelonline.com.gh added: “2,199 respondents representing 20% said they will prefer Dr Mahamudu Bawumia to be the next president of Ghana.”
“2,701 respondents representing 24% said that they will prefer Mr Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen to be the next president of Ghana and lastly, 899 respondents representing 8% said that they will prefer Dr Kwabena Duffour to be the next president of Ghana.”
According to the report, the people’s choice for Mr Mahama is informed by the high rate of unemployment among the youth, the NPP administration’s abandonment of projects started by the NDC government which they believe could have lessened their challenges, and the failed promises of the Akufo-Addo-led administration.
