Mussa Dankwa, the Executive Director of Global InfoAnalytics, has revealed he voted for President John Dramani Mahama in the 2024 general elections.
According to Mussa Dankwa, he is not aligned with any political party.
The pollster highlighted that he has voted for both the NDC and the NPP before.
Speaking on Metro TV’s Good Afternoon Ghana, Mussa Dankwa stated, “ I am not aligned with any political party. I have voted for both NDC and NPP before.
In the last election, I voted for JM, but I don’t affiliate with NDC or NPP”, he added.
However, some Ghanaians have reacted to Mussa Dankwa’s comments, saying, “It is not a sin to be ‘aligned’ with a political party. Neither is it a virtue to be ‘politically neutral”. Indeed, it is perfectly normal (to be expected) that one would subscribe more to the ideology of one political party in a context in which multiple political parties present competing blueprints for social change (“projet de société” )”.
“There’s no way NPP will believe Musah Dankwa is a floating voter. They will always call him NDC”, another stated.
One more netizen added, “I think it’s difficult for some people to understand that. You can actually be a floating voter and vote based on policies and direction of the country”.
“@MKDankwah First, you are a Ghanaian, and voting is your civic responsibility; you don’t owe anyone an explanation of your political affiliations. If anyone is of the view that your precise predictions are because you are NDC, let them also do the same for NPP”, a netizen added.
Meanwhile, Mussa Dankwa has warned Ghanaian politicians that Ghana’s electoral demography has changed.
The pollster asserted that gone are the days when elections were won on propaganda, emotions, and insults.
He detailed that winning elections in Ghana today requires research, strategy, and science.
Speaking on the Citi Breakfast Show, Mussa Dankwa stated, “The word here is poll, fair game, research, and science. Gone are the days when elections are won on propaganda, emotions, insults, or just anything. All the parties must realise that the demography of people who are voting in Ghana today has dramatically changed.
Over 70% of people who vote in Ghana today are below 35 years old. That is something that they must appreciate and understand the implications of the same,” Mr Dankwa explained.
He added, “These people are well-connected, are on social media, and will be quick to fact-check you. If they fact-check you and realise that you are telling lies, that is your end”.
Additionally, Mussa Dankwa, in a separate interview, revealed that the National Democratic Congress (NDC), before the Akwatia by-election, reached out for their data on Akwatia.
According to Mussa Dankwa, the NDC used their data to flip 5 areas in Akwatia where the NPP was leading.
Speaking to Kafui Day in an exclusive interview shared on social media, Mussa Dankwa detailed, “NDC did in the last before the election, they wanted to see the entire election by electoral area, which areas they have lost. This is when we did the last poll, which came on Friday. Somebody reached out to me on Saturday because we had published only ten electoral areas, and they wanted the entire thing.
We gave it to them free of charge; we didn’t charge them because that was just public data we wanted to share”.
He added, “So they knew where the NPP was leading, and where they were leading and even places where people were undecided. NDC came for the date and went to the areas where they were undecided. NPP was leading with 12, NDC was leading in 9 in the final poll.
Mussa Dankwa further revealed that Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s visit to Kusi did not help the NPP, as they were already losing the area.
“When the election was done, the NDC had gone to flip 5 of the 12 that the NPP was holding, using the data. Remember, Bawumia went to Kusi, which was an NPP area, but his visit didn’t help; they lost Kusi”, he added.
