A pro-National Democratic Congress (NDC) group, Bring Mahama Back (BMB) has noted with grave concern and dissatisfaction that, the Economic Intelligence Unit (EIU) is scandalous and therefore should be trashed with great contempt.
The Economic Intelligence Unit (EIU) a couple of weeks ago reported that the NDC cannot win 2024 Ghana’s polls if Mahama leads the party.
With reference to the EIU report on page 6, it stated “former President John Mahama is reportedly considering running again, but we (EIU) expect the opposition NDC to try to revitalize its prospects with a fresh candidate”.
However, the BMB in a press statement signed by Maxwell Kwaku Addae Mununkum, the Secretary and Ebenezar Frimpong Opoku Alooke, Chairman believe if the said report is anything to go by, it lacks intelligence.
“It is unfortunate that a body such as the EIU would seek to make gains and recognition by bringing the name of John Dramani Mahama in its so-called study” the statement added.
According to BMB’s statement, the EIU study in itself lacks all the elements of scientific research to make its findings worthy of being the basis for an informed decision.
“The 22-page report reveals nothing to suggest that it is borne out of a scientific study; rather, it is clear that the EIU only utilized the sentiments existing in the Ghanaian populace to arrive at its conclusions. The many narratives that have emerged upon the release of this report with various media houses making skewed analyses and inferences to suit their political orientation buttress the unscientific nature of the study” it stated.
It added that, “clearly this statement was only incorporated in the report to feed a small anti-Mahama faction within the NDC and to drive home a desire of the ruling government, which for the fear of John Dramani Mahama’s victory in the 2024 presidential elections, is pulling all strings to have him changed as a candidate of the NDC in the next elections”.
