‘I believe in only one poll, the one that happens on election day’ – Dr Adutwum

Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, the flagbearer candidate for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the Member of Parliament(MP) for Bosomtwe Constituency, has rejected pre-election polls and predictions suggesting he would lose the party’s presidential primary on January 31.

On Monday, January 19, Dr. Adutwum wrote on Facebook that the survey conducted on election day is the only one that matters.

He claimed that his involvement at the grassroots level has strengthened his belief that people’s decisions are shaped more by hope and resolve than by statistics.

“I have seen the polls. I have heard the commentaries. I have read the predictions. But my brothers and sisters, I believe in only one poll, the one that happens on election day, 31st January. History has taught us that Ghana is not moved by noise; Ghana is moved by truth, hard work, and conviction.

“When I walk through our communities, when I sit with teachers, parents, traders, students, and party faithful, I do not hear numbers; I hear hope,” he stated.

He also emphasized that surveys are not a reliable way to gauge public opinion.

“And hope cannot be measured by surveys. I remain calm, focused, and grateful. This journey is not about rankings; it is about readiness. On January 31st, it will not be analysts who decide; it will be the people, and I believe with every fibre of my being that victory will speak for itself,” he added.

On election day, he urged delegates to vote for him in order to support his campaign.

Dr. Adutwum will compete against former NPP General Secretary Ing Kwabena Agyepong, former Assin Central MP Kennedy Agyapong, former Abetifi MP Dr. Bryan Acheampong, and former Vice President and 2024 flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for the NPP flagbearership.
