Bawumia bounces back: NPP support for former flagbearer surges in new poll

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) faced a setback in the 2024 elections. However, its flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, is gaining support within the party.

A Global InfoAnalytics poll from April 2025 shows Bawumia's support among NPP members rose from 48% to 57%. This indicates a significant boost in confidence in his leadership.

These findings come months after the party's electoral defeat. They suggest that Bawumia's actions post-election resonate positively with party members.

Analysts believe his calm demeanor after the loss plays a role. His grassroots engagement and focus on campaign-driven policies may also help.

Party loyalists appreciate his steady presence as they look to the future. One political observer stated, “This isn’t just about popularity — it’s about trust and leadership direction.”

Bawumia is seen as someone who can guide the party forward. His rising influence could have major implications for the NPP.

Internal discussions on leadership renewal are beginning to take shape. Insiders say he may become a key voice in these conversations.

This renewed faith in Bawumia could reshape the party's dynamics and public image as they prepare for future elections.
