The Executive Director of Global InfoAnalytics, Mussa Dankwa, has said the former General Secretary of the NPP, John Boadu, is winning the party’s National chairmanship race.
According to Mussa Dankwah, four waves of research into the NPP chairmanship race have produced a consistent pattern around John Boadu.
He disclosed that delegates were asked to assess the candidates on qualities such as unity, grassroots connection, discipline and personality.
Speaking on Joy News, Mussa Dankwah stated, “We wanted to see whether the narrative that is out there really delegates believe and are throwing to those narratives”.
“Here, we are trying to establish consistency with the data. If something doesn’t add up, it will be exposed elsewhere in the responses they give,” he said.
Mussa Dankwah disclosed that responses across the four waves continued to point towards John Boadu winning the NPP chairmanship position.
“How with all these questions, you named it the trend across the four wave, and it seems to put John Boadu over there,” Mr Dankwa said.
According to Mussa Dankwah the finding was particularly surprising to him because John Boadu was previously rejected in his bid to retain the NPP’s General Secretary position.
“I myself was conflicted in my mind because I said, but it was the same MPP that didn’t want him as general secretary,” he added.
Earlier, the Global InfoAnalytics released it lastest poll placing John Boadu at the top of the party’s contest, with a 10-point lead over former Energy Minister Boakye Agyarko.
