The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) has predicted that the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) as the party is higher likelihood to in 2024 Presidential election if only they present a new candidate .
In any case, the organization featured one condition in light of which this prospect can considerably more reverberate.
This was contained in the EIU’s five-year forecast for Ghana issued on April 13, 2022.
As indicated by the London-based experts, their evaluation shows that the opposition party can rejuvenate this possibility of victory with a new presidential candidate.
This will suggest new candidate other than John Dramani Mahama, who had led the party beginning around 2012.
As indicated by the London-based researchers , their appraisal shows that the opposition should head out in different directions from its leader , 2020 flagbearer John Dramani Mahama.
The former President has driven the NDC into two unsuccessful presidential races in 2016 and 2020.
As President Akufo-Addo closes his last term in 2024, the opposition is supposed to go head to head with whoever the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) will put forward as its new Presidential candidate.
Following numerous difficulties tormenting the government including joblessness, a financial slump, and corruption among others, EIU is of the view these developments will fuel the citizens’ opinions against the ruling NPP government.
“Our gauge figure is that continuous public disappointment with the sluggish speed of development in the administration, for example, infrastructure development, job creation and diminishing of corruption will set off anti incumbency factors and push the electorate to look for a change.”
They believe what is happening will shift the equilibrium in the NDC’s favour.
Yet, from their discoveries, the global economic and political research consultancy organization showed that “John Mahama, is allegedly considering running once more.”
In their most recent report, the organization expects the “NDC to attempt to rejuvenate its prospects with a new flag-bearer ”
EIU has, before, accurately predicted the results of Ghana’s elections in 2008, 2012, 2016 and 2020.
