Global InfoAnalytics Executive Director Mussa Dankwah on Tuesday urged Ghanaian political leaders to use artificial intelligence to independently verify data submitted by their own advisers, days after sharing a Meta AI-generated analysis showing the National Democratic Congress (NDC) commanding a significant lead over the New Patriotic Party (NPP) among first-time voters.

The AI-generated assessment put NDC support at 47 percent overall against the NPP’s 26 percent. Among voters entering the electorate for the first time, the gap widened further, with the NDC recording 45 percent compared to 21 percent for the NPP. The analysis described the NDC’s multigenerational support as relatively stable and framed the NPP’s underperformance among young voters as a structural problem rather than a cyclical one.

Dankwah was explicit that the findings were not his own, noting they came directly from Meta AI. His intervention, however, went further than data sharing. He argued that AI now gives political leaders a tool to cross-check the reports they receive from advisers whose assessments may be shaped by personal loyalty rather than honest analysis.
In a social media post following criticism of the earlier findings, Dankwah addressed those who took exception to his work. “When I tell you the truth, you think I hate you,” he wrote.

The pollster added a striking personal admission: he expects artificial intelligence to eventually make his profession obsolete, and said he is at peace with that outcome. Rather than defending the territory of traditional polling, he called AI a welcome force in political analysis precisely because it operates without the incentive to please.

His own diagnosis of the NPP’s position reinforced the AI’s conclusions. Dankwah described the party’s core challenge as one of branding and an ageing support base, a combination that leaves it structurally disadvantaged as new voters enter an electorate that the data suggests leans heavily toward its rival.
