The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has expressed confidence in its prospects ahead of the December 30, 2025, parliamentary rerun in Kpandai, citing lessons learned from past elections in constituencies such as Ablekuma North and Akwatia.
Speaking on Channel One Newsroom on Monday, December 15, Deputy Director of Elections for the NDC, Mahdi Jibril, said the party has implemented proactive measures to ensure a fair and transparent election process.
He urged all stakeholders, including the Electoral Commission (EC), to draw lessons from previous reruns to guarantee smooth polling that adheres to constitutional guidelines.
“Ablekuma North will be a guide for all of us as a political party. What happened in Ablekuma North is similar to what happened in Kpandai. In fact, the same thing happened in Akwatia. I believe the EC will engage us and ensure there are no challenges, but as a party, we will do extra to ensure we don’t repeat the same issues,” he stated.
The rerun follows a court ruling nullifying the initial Kpandai election results, setting the stage for a high-stakes contest between the NDC and the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
A recent Global InfoAnalytics poll, released on Sunday, December 14, 2025, shows NPP candidate Matthew Nyimdam leading with 50 percent support, narrowly ahead of NDC candidate Daniel Nsala Wakpal, who has 46 percent. Independent candidate Donkor Eric Nipani is projected at 1 percent, while 3 percent of respondents remain undecided.
Both parties have intensified campaign efforts, crisscrossing the constituency to mobilize supporters and prepare voters, highlighting the significance of this closely watched rerun.
