Kwesi Botchwey Jnr, an aide to Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has stated that the campaign team for former Vice President will not become complacent, despite a new poll that positions him as the frontrunner in the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) flagbearer race.

The comments follow the release of a Global Info Analytics survey on August 21, 2025, which indicates that Dr Bawumia leads the race to become the NPP's presidential candidate for the 2028 general elections.

According to the poll, Dr Bawumia garnered 52% of support among NPP delegates, while his closest competitor, former Assin Central MP Kennedy Agyapong, received 17%.

He views the results as a "call to action" and a form of positive feedback from the grassroots. "We believe it's a true reflection of what is happening on the ground.
