“NDC Will Lose 71 Parliamentary Seats in the 2028 Elections” – Janet Nabla Sparks Reactions

According to a report by GHOne TV on Monday, November 9, 2026, the Chairperson of the People’s National Party (PNP), Janet Nabla, has predicted that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) will lose 71 parliamentary seats in the 2028 general elections.

The statement has quickly generated widespread discussion on social media, with Ghanaians weighing in from different political perspectives.

Madam Nabla’s projection is a significant one, given the NDC’s current strength in Parliament. While the report offered no detailed breakdown of how the figure was reached, the prediction signals the PNP’s growing ambition to position itself as a force in Ghana’s political landscape ahead of the next election cycle.

Reactions on social media have been mixed. A section of commenters dismissed the forecast as unrealistic, questioning the basis for such a projection and the PNP’s own chances of winning enough seats to make it meaningful. Others responded with humour, using sarcasm to downplay the claim, while a few sought clarification on who the statement was directed at.

Some commenters shifted attention to the media itself, suggesting that the broadcaster bore some responsibility for amplifying the statement. Others offered their own tongue-in-cheek counter-predictions, reflecting the lively and often light-hearted nature of political conversation online in Ghana.

Political predictions made well ahead of an election often serve as a way of mobilising supporters and shaping public discourse. Whether Madam Nabla’s forecast will hold any weight remains to be seen, as the political landscape may shift considerably before 2028.

For now, the statement has succeeded in one respect: it has people talking. As the country edges closer to the next electoral cycle, political parties are expected to intensify their messaging, and similar bold claims are likely to follow.
