Mussa Dankwah, Executive Director of Global InfoAnalutics, had stated that Matthew Nyindam, the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) candidate in the Kpandai parliamentary elections, is very popular on the grounds ahead of the rerun poll.
According to Mussa Dankwah, historical data from the constituency demonstrates Nyindam’s popularity in the region.
He stated on the Key Points on TV3 on Saturday, December 13, “I think he is popular, Mathhew Nyindam is strong on the grounds.”
Mussa Dankwah added that the two main political parties will engage in strong competition in the Kpandai parliamentary election rematch.
They anticipate very tight polling, he says.
He declared, “We expect the race to be very fierce; early indication shows that we are not going to be surprised as to how close this will be. It is going to be very close.”
He said, “The numbers are very tight.”
The Ghanaian Electoral Commission (EC) has declared that the Kpandai Constituency Parliamentary Election would be held again on Tuesday, December 30, 2025.
This ruling came after the Tamale High Court issued an order on Monday, November 24, 2025, requiring a repeat of the election to take place within thirty (30) days.
On Tuesday, December 9, 2025, the Commission received an official notification from the Clerk to Parliament stating that the constituency’s parliamentary seat was vacant. This further prompted the Commission to take action.
The three candidates that ran in the first 2024 Parliamentary Election for the Kpandai Constituency will be the only ones running in the rerun, according to a press release from the EC.
