A new national survey conducted by Africa Policy Lens has revealed that NPP Presidential Candidate Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia currently holds a measurable electoral advantage over every major potential NDC contender ahead of the 2028 general elections. The survey, which interviewed 16,963 voters across all 276 constituencies, tested Dr. Bawumia in seven hypothetical one-on-one contests against various NDC candidates.
Across all matchups, Dr. Bawumia secured between 45.7% and 49.9% of national voter support, with the largest leads against Hon. Eric Opoku (49.8% to 33.9%) and Prof. Joshua Alabi (49.9% to 34.4%). Despite his lead, the report cautioned that the survey should not be viewed as a prediction of the outcome of the 2028 election, but rather, as a reflection of the will of the people at the time the survey was conducted.
