Mahama’s Post-Election Honeymoon Fades as Approval Ratings Slip – Global InfoAnalytics Poll

Published:

President John Mahama’s soaring post-election approval appears to be cooling, according to the latest survey conducted by Global InfoAnalytics.

The poll shows the President’s job approval rating has fallen from 73% in July to 67% in September — a six-point decline. While Mahama continues to enjoy the confidence of more than two-thirds of voters, analysts say the dip signals growing scrutiny of his leadership as his government begins to settle into office.

According to the findings, 22% of respondents now disapprove of the President’s performance, with another 11% undecided. This leaves Mahama with a net approval rating of +45%.

Despite the slippage, the survey also highlighted a historic first: every region across the country currently approves of the President’s performance. This rare moment of national consensus, observers note, underscores the broad goodwill that accompanied Mahama’s return to power.

However, political watchers caution that sustaining such approval will be a challenge as campaign promises confront the realities of governance. With expectations high, the coming months may prove pivotal in determining whether Mahama can maintain the confidence of Ghanaians or face sharper declines in public support
