Former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has taken lead in the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) upcoming presidential primary, securing 47 per cent of delegates’ support, according to the latest poll by Global InfoAnalytics.
The results, published on the organisation’s official social media platforms on Monday, September 29, 2025, position him as the favourite front-runner in the party’s upcoming internal contest.
The poll, however, also revealed a significant share of delegates remain undecided, raising questions about how the race may shift in the coming weeks.
While Dr. Bawumia continues to enjoy the confidence of nearly half of the delegates surveyed, the findings suggest there is room for movement in the contest as aspirants intensify their campaigns.
Businessman and former Assin Central legislator, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, emerged as the Vice President’s closest challenger, but the data indicates he has not been able to fully capitalise on Dr Bawumia’s dip in support.
Analysts argue that until Mr. Agyapong converts undecided delegates to his side, Dr Bawumia’s lead will remain difficult to overturn.
Global InfoAnalytics stated that the figures highlight both the former Vice President’s dominance and the fluidity of the primaries as delegates weigh their options.
With the NPP’s flagbearership contest expected to shape the party’s strategy for the 2028 general elections, observers say the eventual outcome will be crucial in determining the strength of the governing party heading into the national polls.
