Lead Counsel for the petitioner in the ongoing presidential election petition hearing, Mr Tsatsu Tsikata has told the Supreme Court today that he closed the petitioner’s case because he believed the Chairperson of the 1st Respondent, Mrs Jean Adukwei Mensa will submit herself for cross-examination.
According to him, Jean Mensah’s affidavit indicated that she’ll be testifying hence his earlier decision to close their case for that to happen.
“We had the expectation that the chairperson of the 1st Respondent will testify” hence the closure of the case.
“The Chairperson of the 1st Respondent has in affidavit made clear that the petitioner will in no way be prejudiced because the questions that the petitioner sought to have in interrogatories those will be subject matter in cross examination,” Mr Tsikata told the court.
