The Centre for Sustainable African Development Initiatives, UK, has forecast that Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is positioned to secure a substantial victory in the upcoming NPP Super Delegates election on Saturday.

A survey conducted by the group, which delved into the outcome of the Special Delegates Conference and potential top 5 contenders, indicated that Dr. Bawumia is expected to emerge as the winner with a decisive margin.

The remaining candidates are projected to gather relatively modest percentages to secure a spot in the top 5.

According to the findings, which were based on the views of Super Delegates, Dr. Bawumia is anticipated to achieve 72.6% of the votes. Former Trade Minister Alan Kyerematen is predicted to come in second with 7.7%.

Kennedy Agyepong is positioned to take the third spot with 4.3%, followed by Kwabena Adjei Agyepong with 1.3%, and former Agriculture Minister Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto concluding the top 5 with 0.6%.

The survey also disclosed that 13% of the delegates were undecided at the time of the research.

The special delegates, composed of Members of Parliament, constituency chairmen, regional executives, national executives, and other members, were asked about their predictions for the top 5 candidates to be elected by the delegates of NPP's special electoral college. Additionally, they were questioned about the criteria they use to assess candidates for the NPP flagbearer position.

According to the report, the primary factors considered by delegates when evaluating candidates were the candidate's vision for the party and the country, as well as their competence.
