A new survey by Global InfoAnalytics has found that 67 percent of Ghanaians approve of the performance of President John Dramani Mahama, reflecting what analysts describe as strong public confidence in his leadership.
The poll, which sampled opinions across various regions of the country, indicates that a majority of respondents believe the President is delivering on key governance and economic priorities. The findings place Mahama’s approval well above the halfway mark, suggesting broad-based support among citizens.
According to the survey, respondents cited efforts in economic management, social intervention programmes, and infrastructure development as some of the key factors influencing their assessment. However, the report also highlighted concerns among a segment of the population regarding the cost of living and job creation, indicating areas where expectations remain high.
Analysts say the 67 percent rating is significant, particularly in the context of Ghana’s current economic climate, where governments often face public pressure over inflation, unemployment, and fiscal stability.
The survey further noted variations in approval ratings across demographic groups, including age, location, and employment status, though overall sentiment remained largely positive.
Political observers suggest the findings could shape public discourse in the coming months, especially as stakeholders assess government performance and policy direction. They add that while approval ratings provide a snapshot of public opinion, sustaining such support will depend on continued delivery of tangible results.
Global InfoAnalytics is known for its periodic surveys on governance and public opinion, often providing insights into voter sentiment and national issues.
The Presidency is yet to officially comment on the latest poll results, but the findings are expected to fuel debate among political actors and the wider public over the government’s performance trajectory.
