Shut your f**king belly up. Who takes you serious! You can only predict, you don't apply any scientific method.
You are a bad and unqualified pollster if you fail to factor in those factors you have listed. Prediction is important in research and for you to not have been able to predict the so called apathy speaks volume of your qualif ...

The 1.2 million voter apathy in Ashanti Region was the false voter print outs the NDC intercepted and that was why wale wale dancer Bawumia immediately conceded.
Disgraceful npp
Hahahahaaa. Ben Ephson is the only polster that depends on npp's projection of how many thumb-printed ballot papers they are going to stuff in the ballot boxes. The ndc's vigilance this time caused Bawumia to concede before t ...

Poor Ben. Since 2012 you have been all over the map. This is just another one. Why didn't you take into consideration voter apathy in your predictions? Just vanish.
You can tell this man only sits in his office and put out figures that will project victory for his paymasters. He's a fraud! This time around, we have seen the real figures from the ashanti region thanks to the extra vigilan ...

Hahaha, so Ben Ephson really considers himself a pollster? This guy who cannot even pass for a village lotto forecaster?
Ok, Uncle Ben, give me a '2 sure' for this weekend.
Funny guy!
Hahahaaa. You're crazy! Don't worry Ben Ephson. He is room-bound, he can't come out of his room.
Ben lost his relevance after he decided to take money from NPP to screw polls in their favour. Wat did I hear him say "that he has failed twice" wat of the by-elections. Assin North. It's very simple to know. NDC prevented th ...

You are an obsolete character with no more value in what you say. Your polling should have detected voter apathy if you were serious.
Stupid talks!! Then put a disclaimer on your silly predictions that they are susceptible to voter apathy.
You are simply following your stomach. How did Musa Dankwa get it right?
The votes in Ashanti didn’t drop because of voter apathy. It dropped because NPP could not steal the more than 2 million votes they planned to steal. You are a spent force, a stomach politician. You mother fucker like the t ...

Fake pollster
I believe you Uncle Ben, but I think your biggest challenge is you are stuck to your old ways of polling, you need to move with the trend, the world has moved on a lot. Sticking to your old methodology is not helpful anymore.
Eii you dey?? like e better you no talk o cos people forget about you sef. Now you dey come chop insults and trolling
Please better stop this poll job. If your survey cannot factor voter apathy then you have no business doing election polls.
Simple and short. He has become a lotto forecaster whose numbers are refusing to drop
How come musa danquah was able to get it right?
Hahahaaa. I'm enjoying the comments. Ben Ephson is still using the pre-colonial method of polling. He can never catch up with the modern voting factors. For your information, he is proceeding on retirement and so let's forgiv ...

Retire, stupid!
You are naturally useless. You are a pollster with opposite results.
Once you gave to NPP, I knew NDC will take it. You are just useless. Who waste time on your so called expertise?
Shut up
Youbare not worth your salt...charlatan poster
Ben Ephson is a charlatan who takes money from politicians and then predicts the outcome of elections in their favour. His research methodology ought to be seriously interrogated. The guy simply has no clue and no serious po ...

Everyone is dazed from Mahama's devastating upper cup that sent Bawumia to the floor and could not beat the count even if they counted to 20. All idiots are basing their failed predictions on the so-called Apathy.
The same ...

People were just vigilant this time. Period!!!! There's no two million people sitting somewhere in the Ashanti Region who did not come out to vote. EC's register is just blotted.
Stop calling this man a pollster. He is a guesser.
Is he also among the seers? Ben Epheson is still predicting? Oh my Gosh
You don't know about ballot stuffing and faking of pink sheets right?
This time all were blocked so they could not win.
Ghanaians are wide awake.
Nobody take you serious you bootlicker
Shame unto you Ben Ephson the fake stomatch pollster,you and Ghanaian fake pastors are no difference my own invented English says" your eyes are dead " waniawu"
This means you have outlived your usefulness.
Ben should have known there would be a Voter apathy, and it's not NPP which didn't vote but most of the Ghanaians are disappointed with them
The npp was simply not able to push through their 2 million already thumb-printed ballot papers. They hardly win elections genuinely. Ndc footsoldiers were vigilant this time.
Massa nobody takes you serious again
THIS IS AN INDICATION THAT HE IS NOT A POLLSTER, BECAUSE EVERY SCIENTIFIC POLLS HAS A SYSTEM OF DETECTING APATHY. MUSA DANKWA TALKED A LOT ABOUT APATHY IN HIS POLLS.
Who is forcing you to predict
You know is election why couldn't factor that in to your projection, just accept you have failed and let's move forward because we know where you belong.
Stomach pollster
Uncle Ben just lied.
NPP Ashanti in 2020 was 1.79M
NPP Ashanti in 2024 is 1.32M
Delta is 47k votes, yet Uncle says 1.2M voters difference
Hey Mr incompetent clueless stomach man, shut up there
You lied, and I hope you will not pride yourself as a pollster again. Just go away. It is a new era, and you do not matter.
THIS THING CALLED ELECTION PROPHECY AND PREDICTIONS WILL SOON FADE OFF.IF THE STEALING AND STUFFING OF BALLOT PAPERS CONTINUES MANY PREDICTIONS WILL NOT HOLD.EVEN KWEKU BONSAM PREDICTED THAT MAHAMA WILL WIN AND IT CAME TO PAS ...

You underestimated the intelligence of Ghanaians
Do you still read articles from this man and Kweku Baako? They are 'expired' since long. Spent forces
Ben don't worry even some men God failed in their prophecies. Spirituality vrs scientific prediction. Who wins? Hahahahaha......
Simply shut your beak
>>>>> Hot girls are waiting for you on -->> www.Hot4.eu
Ben Ephson, you're intellectually corrupt. If you did scientifically proven polling, you'd have known that there was apathy among NPP supporters.
Because you don't like NDC
Old fool. Hypocrite Ben Ephson.
This stupid rug as journalist
No sense. There are variables and invariables. Your prediction was random, not even a miscalculation otherwise. The gap is too wide to constitute a mistake. It is in the region of 15 - 16 points. Well, you have got to feed yo ...

My friend you are simply not a pollster period. At best you are just an ordinary lotto forecaster. Any serious pollster will know that there was a looming apathy brewing within the society. Anyway how much was on the table or ...

This man kept recording failure consecutive times from years back.
The Nerves!!!! Just Give Up and leave us alone....
Hahahaa, Uncle Ben, forget about the 2024 predictions. You got it wrong. Give us the prediction for the 2028 elections.
Stomach Pollster
How the mighty have fallen!!! Growing up, he had so much respect for people like Ben Ephson because of how relevant he was to Ghana's electoral landscape. Fast-forward, he has become the most useless Lotto forecaster ever to ...

The register in 2020 was bloated in Ashanti so what you're saying is neither here nor there. This is the real data.
Ben Ephson has never predicted any election outcome correctly. He does lotto forecasting for election but he has never got any right. His is not scientific. He relies on TV rally pictures to predict.
Hahahaaa. You blast!
You claim you predicted 8 and only two were missed. Polls aren’t about who will win or lose only. It’s about the numbers; how many people will vote for A against B. Etc. all your numbers have been poor in the last 6 polls ...

This stomach direction liar again? Idiot buffoon
Your failure is one too many!! I think you need to retire!!
Ben stop disgracing yourself because of your stomach. I can't tell the last you got anything right. How do you expect Bawumia to win when all that he said in opposition is been played back at him
Man speak the truth and stop the animal food called apathy.u were just bias bcos of stomach direction. Nokofio syndrome has cost u.... problem.
It not true The Governments usual stealing mechanism did not work as a result of vigilance by the electorate
My dear Ephson, stop the crap. Why didn't you factor in the so-called voter apathy in your poll, given the experience you got from 2016 poll. Stop fooling around as nobody takes your polls seriously.
Mumu, how come info analytics go it right.
Lotto forecaster
One eyed pollster what do you expect. Voodoo nkwaaa
You still get mouth dey talk? You're not ashamed? Look at you shameful NPP polestar. You backfired completely, and you have destroyed yourself.
Please, shut up and keep the little credibility that you have.
Shame!!
Shame! Lotto Forecaster! The Coffee Shop-Noko Fio! Any way, due to Covid/Russia-Ukraine hunger, Ben Ephson, do forecast me lotto# this weekend. But you can NOT. So, People: Try Two Sure-"56-41". Sor Me Wh3!!
And so how come Mussa Dankwah got it right. How was he able to know and, detect and anticipate aparthy and low voter turnout. Your credibility is waning. You should relax.
Your end has come
But this man he be pollster? I ve neva considered him as such cos most of his predictions turns out X
Did you take into account the 2 million votes Kennedy Agyapong said was going to be used to rig the election
Your own explanation expose you as a lotro forecaster it's mean you learnt nothing from the fallout of your 2016 failed prediction especially when both parties have being in power for 8 years?
Funny excuses
This man is as greedy as his fatness. Predicting victories for the corrupt npp party and gabby to be happy. Covid nearly took you away but God has given a 2nd chance at life but look at the your life again.
Epson is a kenkey pollster. Did you consider voter turnout in your predictions?
The over voting and ballot stuffing was checked by d vigilance of the NDC boys. That should explain this and not that voters failed to turn up
Until his second eye opens his stomach will always direct his polls. Voodoo pollster
The votes in Ashanti didn’t drop because of voter apathy. It dropped because NPP could not steal the more than 2 million votes they planned to steal. You are a spent force, a stomach politician. You mother fucker like the t ...
