A new national poll released by Global InfoAnalytics for the month of April 2023 shows the president Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s job approval rating has taken a nose dive after making a recovery in January 2023.

The poll shows 65 per cent of voters disapprove of his performance, up from 59 per cent in January, while 29 per cent approve of his performance, down from 32 per cent.

Fifty-eight percent of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) supporters approve the president’s performance and 38 per cent disapprove.

For the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), 11 per cent approved Nana Akufo-Addo’s job performance whilst 86 per cent disapproved his performance.

Additionally, 15 per cent of floating voters approved of his performance compared to 77 per cent who disapproved his performance.

Also, 71 per cent of voters believe Ghana is headed in the wrong direction, unchanged from January 2023 poll.

Nineteen percent believed it is headed in the right direction and a further 10 per cent did not have opinion.

For the NPP primaries ahead of the 2024 national elections, the poll shows Mr Kennedy Ohene Agyapong (KOA) surging among general voters but not enough to overtake Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen (AKK) and Dr Mahamudu Bawumia (DMB) in the race to lead the NPP into the 2024 elections.

Kennedy Agyapong according to the polls now attracts 23 per cent of votes when voters were asked to indicate their preference for the NPP leadership.

Alan Kyerematen stills leads Dr Bawumia 30 per cent to 29 per cent among all voters. However, among NPP affiliates, Dr Bawumia still has a slender lead over Alan Kyerematen. Dr Bawumia now attracts 39 per cent of NPP votes, Alan Kyerematen attracts 37 per cent while Kennedy Agyapong has 23 per cent.
