In the lead-up to Ghana\u2019s 2024 elections,\u00a0IMANI\u2019s PULSE Episode 11 provides intriguing insights into the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and former President John Dramani Mahama\u2019s campaign performance on social media.<\/p>\n
Analysing over 20,000 posts from August to October 10, 2024, the report paints a largely optimistic picture for the NDC.<\/p>\n
The NDC recorded a significant 72% positive sentiment for both the party and Mahama\u2019s campaign activities.<\/p>\n
As Mahama focuses on economic recovery and a \u201c24-hour economy\u201d policy, these promises have resonated well with online audiences.<\/p>\n
About 70% of discussions surrounding his promises were positive, with only 30% showing negative reactions.<\/p>\n
IMANI\u2019s emotional analysis, which adds context to public sentiments, revealed that 41% of the comments reflected admiration, while neutral emotions accounted for 36%.<\/p>\n
Despite some criticisms, only 18% of mentions expressed disgust or anger, reflecting a largely favourable public reception.<\/p>\n
Mahama\u2019s call for change is the centrepiece of his campaign, and online sentiments reflect overwhelming support, with 82% of discussions related to this theme being positive.<\/p>\n
Religious endorsements, promises of swift economic reforms, and youth-centric policies have contributed to his growing online presence.<\/p>\n
However, Mahama has faced backlash for avoiding presidential debates, and his infrastructure record remains a contentious topic, drawing negative responses.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
