Professor Smart Sarpong, an Associate Professor of Statistics and Director of Research at Kumasi Technical University, recently published a research report on the upcoming 2024 general elections. The report revealed that Dr. Mahamud Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party, is currently leading with 38.1% of the vote, compared to Mr. John Dramani Mahama’s 36.1%.
George Krobea Asante, the Deputy National Communications Director of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), expressed his lack of surprise at the results, in a presser, stating that Ghanaians have more trust in Dr. Bawumia’s competence than in Mr. John Mahama.

“I’m not surprised that the latest survey by the distinguished researcher, Professor Smart Sarpong, came out with these outcomes. Indeed, the outcome of the survey which puts Dr Mahamudu Bawumia ahead of John Mahama is a true reflection of the realities on the grounds.
It is important to point out that the survey was conducted before the recent regional tours of Dr Bawumia.
The respondents based their responses on the speech delivered by the Vice President when he hosted a program at the University of Professional Studies, Accra, on February 7, 2024.
The about 70 bold solutions he articulated at the event have given Ghanaians the hope that with Bawumia in the driving seat, Ghana would be better off than the former president whose reign brought nothing but hardships to the masses even though there were no major global challenges like we have faced.
Bawumia inspires hope, courage, confidence and the willpower to lead this country to a destination more enviable to our peers on the continent.
Ghanaians have been made aware of the challenges we are facing and how we are facing them. Though they are not happy, they believe and know that between Bawumia and Mahama, Bawumia stands tall as the one who can best canoe us to safety.”
