The campaign team of former Assin Central MP and New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer aspirant, Kennedy Agyapong, says it is not perturbed by a new survey by Global Info Analytics which places former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in the lead ahead of the party’s upcoming internal contest.
Speaking on JoyNews’ The Pulse on Friday, Mr Agyapong’s spokesperson, Kwasi Kwarteng, said the survey results would not provoke antagonism from their camp. Instead, he described the poll as an opportunity for reflection and improvement.
"This is research work, and the findings put out by Mr Danquah (Global Info Analytics) is an opportunity and feedback just to improve the work that we are doing, we don't want to be antagonistic," he said on the show.
He added that he is not satisfied with the time frame the survey was conducted. "If you look at the findings that are put out there, this work was done within the space of eight days, where people will even have concerns about the narrow time."
"For us in team Ken, we will take it as a very good feedback, it is an invitation for us to improve on the things that we are doing," he emphasised.
According to the survey, former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has emerged as the clear front-runner in the race to lead the opposition NPP into the 2028 general elections, according to the new poll released on August 21, 2025.
The survey shows Dr Bawumia commanding 52% support among NPP delegates ahead of the party’s presidential primary in January 2026, giving him a decisive edge over his rivals.
His closest challenger, former Assin Central MP Kennedy Agyapong, trails far behind with 17%. Other aspirants fared poorly, with Dr Bryan Acheampong polling 3%, former Education Minister Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum 1%, and former General Secretary Kwabena Agyapong, Boakye Agyarko, and Addai Nimo each recording less than 1%.
