After the historic defeat in the last general election, the embattled opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) is regrouping, starting with the election of a new flagbearer.
The contest amongst the five – Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, Dr Bryan Acheampong, Dr Osei Yaw Adutwum, Dr Mahammudu Bawumia and Ing. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong has been fierce.
Beyond criss-crossing by the aspirants to spread their messages to the 211,849 delegates across the entire 276 constituencies, prophesies and polls have managed to take centre stage.
Some polls have predicted a win for the former Assin Central Legislator, Ken Agyapong, whereas others have called tomorrow’s primary in favour of the former Vice President, Dr Bawumia.
It is instructive to note that pollsters gather data from a set of identifiable groups to gain insight about what they think of a particular subject.
Indicators like geographical locations and demographics are but some of the information pollsters rely upon to justify their predictions.
Unlike polls, prophecies on the other hand are spiritual, making them difficult to evaluate with scientific indicators.
The country is witnessing the confusion set out by these conflicting surveys and prophesies. The Chronicle is not in a position to state which prediction – whether prophecy or poll – is right; suffice it to say, the end will justify the means.
POLLS
At least four surveys about tomorrow’s NPP presidential primary create divisions about the outcomes.
This paper has sighted Sanity Africa’s polls, predicting a 52% win for Ken Agyapong and 40% for Dr Bawumia after engaging 15,000 delegates.
One Dr Evans Duah has also published his survey, predicting that Ken Agyapong will be victorious with 52.59% with Dr Bawumia managing 36.24%. He said he got his data from some 31,556 delegates.
Another survey from the Centre for Public Opinion Awareness (CenPOA) said Dr Bawumia would obtain 42% and Ken Agyapong would have 34%.
The results demonstrate that the race is highly fluid.
Delegate-focused surveys suggest Kennedy Agyapong may have built a strong base of support while other polls indicate Dr Bawumia maintains an edge, particularly if undecided delegates consolidate behind him.
Last week Friday, Global Info Analytics presented results of its poll, which is in contrast with that of CenPOA and Dr Evans Duah.
Musah Dankwah’s Global Info Analytics’ survey indicated that Dr Bawumia would win with 57%, while Kennedy Agyapong is trailing at 28%. Dr Bryan Acheampong holds 13%, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum 2%, and Kwabena Agyepong 0%.
According to the firm, this poll was conducted among over 10,000 delegates nationwide across all 276 constituencies.
Yesterday, The Chronicle published the results of a survey conducted by Africa Policy Lens, which said Ken Ohene Agyapong has seen his support decline from 27.74% to 25.10%.
Dr Bawumia recorded the most significant gain, with delegate support rising from 54.09% before engagements to 61.0%.
PROPHECIES
About nine prophecies have also been made about the presidential primary, out of which seven are prophesying victory for Dr Bawumia and two for Ken Agyapong.
The General Overseer of Spiritlife Revival Ministries, Prophet Bernard El Bernard Nelson Eshun, Resident Pastor of Prayer Arena Ministries and Prophet Williams Agyei have all predicted a win for Ken Ohene Agyapong, come Saturday, January 31, 2026.
However, Prophet Nigel Gaisie, Prophet Eric Boahen Uche, Prophet Samuel Henry and Prophet Emmanuel Worlasi have also prophesied that Dr Bawumia will carry the day.
Others who have made the same prophecy are Prophet William Braham, Prophet Telvin Sowah Adjei, and Prophet Elijah King.
With these opposing prophesies, all claiming to be seeing from one God and speaking what God has shown them, it begs the question whether it is the same God who spoke to all of them, given these conflicting prophesies.
SCRIPTURE
The Bible says in 1st Corinthians 14:33 that “For God is not a God of confusion but of peace…”
Also, 1 John 4:1 says, “Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
Again, Deuteronomy 18:21-22 “You may say to yourselves, ‘How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the Lord?’ If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the Lord does not take place or come true, that is a message the Lord has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously, so do not be alarmed.”
