Renowned Ghanaian pollster, Ben Ephson has predicted that the NPP will not be able to retain the Navrongo Central parliamentary seat in the forthcoming general elections.
According to Ben Ephson, there is a huge misunderstanding among the NPP faithfuls in the Constituency which emanated during the parliamentary primaries in June, 2020 and that will cause the NPP to lose the parliamentary seat to the main opposition party NDC.

“Someone calling one a drunkard? I monitored the Navrongo Central and the acrimony which was being thrown. The insults! I realized that whoever wins will lose the seat ( in the main elections). The way they threw the insults at themselves and so far I don’t think the party has succeeded in patching the two up. Yes (the acrimony will affect her chances of winning). They used unprintable words and this is not a seat you can say is a safe seat,” he said.

Ben Ephson stated that though the newly elected NPP parliamentary candidate will do better for the Constituency if elected as their legislator but the misunderstanding will cause the party from retaining the seat.
“If madam Abayage wins, she will do very well but I doubt. The people will either do skirt and blouse or not go and vote at all,” he said on Accra-based TV3.
