No One In His Right Sense Will Allow Tsikata Cross-Examine Even His Sister – Franklin Cudjoe

IMANI Africa boss, Franklin Cudjoe has sarcastically suggested that nobody in their right frame of mind will put their client or sister up to be cross-examined by an astute lawyer like Tsatsu Tsikata.

This comes after lawyers for the 1st respondent in the ongoing election petition refused to allow EC Chair, Jean Mensah mount the witness box to be cross-examined.

Lawyer Tsatsu Tsikata argued that the EC chairperson showed readiness for cross-examination when she filed a witness statement and supporting affidavits in response to the petitioner.

However,  the first respondent also argues that the rules of the court, specifically Order 38 (4)(4) of the High Court (Civil Procedure) Rules, C.I. 47 allowed the EC, which is the first respondent in the petition, not to adduce evidence.

Adding his voice to the back and forth, Franklin Cudjoe tweeted: “actually, who in his or her right frame of mind seeing what Tsatsu is doing will put his or her sister in harm’s way by forcing her into a witness box?Please understand.”
