A latest opinion survey conducted by Global InfoAnalytics ahead of the Kpandai parliamentary rerun suggests a tight race, with the New Patriotic Party (NPP) candidate, Mathew Nyindam, holding a slim advantage.

The poll, released on Sunday, December 14, 2025, indicates that Nyindam commands 50 per cent of likely votes, narrowly ahead of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) contender, Daniel Nsala Wakpal, who is projected to secure 46 per cent. Independent candidate Donkor Eric Nipani is expected to receive one per cent, while three per cent of respondents remain undecided.

Although the margin between the two leading candidates is narrow and falls within the survey’s ±3.9 per cent margin of error, the findings place Nyindam slightly in front. The data also suggests minimal voter movement between the two major contenders, with roughly two per cent of each candidate’s original supporters switching allegiance to the other.

However, a notable shift was recorded among voters who initially favoured the independent candidate. The poll shows that 28 per cent of Donkor Nipani’s former supporters have now thrown their weight behind Nyindam, strengthening his position ahead of the rerun.

Assessing Nyindam’s performance during his brief tenure in the current Parliament, the survey found mixed reviews. While three per cent of respondents rated his performance as excellent, 32 per cent described it as either good or very good. Another 36 per cent considered his work average, whereas 29 per cent expressed dissatisfaction, rating it poor or very poor.

Beyond the rerun election, the survey also gauged public sentiment on the country’s overall direction. A majority of respondents in the Kpandai constituency — 66 per cent — expressed optimism that Ghana is on the right path. In contrast, 26 per cent felt the nation is heading in the wrong direction, while eight per cent were unsure.

Among NPP supporters, opinions were divided, with 37 per cent believing the country is moving in the right direction, 47 per cent disagreeing, and 16 per cent undecided.

Conversely, confidence was high among NDC supporters, as 97 per cent said Ghana is on the right track. Only three per cent held a contrary view, with a negligible proportion expressing no opinion. Floating voters also leaned towards optimism, with 65 per cent indicating a positive outlook for the country’s direction.
