December polls: ‘NDC likey to snatch Atwima Mponua, Offinso North and Dome/Kwabenya seats’ — Mahama’s Aide

Joyce Bawah Mogtari, spokesperson for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer John Dramani Mahama, has expressed optimism about the NDC’s prospects in some constituencies with NPP seats, including Atwima Mponua, Offinso North, and Dome/Kwabenya.

She claimed that recent internal polls conducted by the ruling party reveal vulnerabilities in these traditionally NPP-held seats.

“In fact, according to the NPP’s own research findings, seats like Atwima Mponua, Offinso North, and Dome are difficult for the NPP to win,” said the NDC stalwart.

In a Facebook post on Monday, November 4, Joyce Bawah criticized the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) for what she described as spreading “inaccurate and fake research outcomes” to fake their chances in the upcoming elections.

This comes after the first Deputy Speaker of Parliament and MP for Asante Bekwai Joseph Osei Owusu claimed that research available to both leading parties points to a Bawumia victory.

“Delusions of grandeur!” she rebutted. “The NPP’s strategy in this election seems to be ‘tickle yourself and laugh.’ If not, why would their party’s leading figures be on a deliberate self-serving run across the country, spreading inaccurate and fake research outcomes to tickle themselves and their followers?”

She underscored that the NDC’s chances have been bolstered by a series of research studies favoring former President Mahama over his opponent, Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, in popularity and parliamentary seat projections.

“Here are the facts, and they shall remain so: Bawumia has trailed Mahama in every credible research study since 2022, including the two by the NIB,” Joyce Bawa Mogtari emphasized. “The NDC also leads the NPP by a meaningful number of seats in Parliament.”
