Johnson Asiedu Nketia, the National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), is facing an uphill battle in the party’s 2028 presidential race, according to the latest Global InfoAnalytics poll.

The survey shows Asiedu Nketia has garnered just 10% of voter support, placing him outside the top three contenders for the NDC flagbearership.

Leading the race is the current Vice President, Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyeman, with 26% of voter preference.

She is closely followed by the Minister of Education, Haruna Iddrisu, with 19%, and the Minister of Finance, Dr. Ato Forson, who ranks third with 12%.

Asiedu Nketia shares fourth place with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, both polling at 10%.

Other notable figures in the race include Dr. Zanetor Agyeman-Rawlings, Member of Parliament for Klottey Korle, and Chief of Staff Julius Debrah, who both secured 6% of voter support.

The results highlight that while Asiedu Nketia remains an influential figure within the NDC, he faces significant competition from more prominent candidates in the race for the party’s presidential ticket for the 2028 general election.

Afenyo-Markin alleges internal struggles in NDC over Mahama’s successor

The outgoing Majority leader in Parliament, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has claimed that a discussion about the next flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has started even before the President-elect, John Mahama is sworn in to finish his four-year term.

According to Afenyo-Markin, internal strife has emerged within the party, and some MPs have been discussing the matter in parliament.

He stated, “Already in Parliament on Monday, we saw a few things. In Parliament, we see things with our own eyes and hear things. Their internal struggle for leadership has started; they have already begun their campaign for who will succeed Mahama.”

Speaking on Joy FM’s Super Morning Show on Wednesday, Afenyo-Markin said he would not disclose the names of the MPs who have started these conversations. “All of this will be factored into what happens in 2028.”

He added that, he is confident the public will soon see the true nature of the NDC and may regret giving them power in the just-ended general election.

Mr Mahama won the election with over six million votes in the general election on December 7, but he has only one term left constitutionally.
