Former President John Dramani Mahama has bemoaned how Electoral Commission chair, Jean Mensah failed to account to Ghanaians in court during the 2020 election petition.
According to him the trial was orchestrated to ensure Madam Mensah evade accountability.
Speaking at the annual conference of the NDC’s Professionals Forum’s in Accra on Thursday, 29 April 2021, the 2020 flag bearer of the NDC said: “I believe that the law should not be an instrument for partisan purposes.
“I also believe that the rule of law should mean that one rule for all”, Mr Mahama noted, insisting: “The 2021 election petition will go down in history as the profound moment when the Chairperson of the EC opted to evade public scrutiny”.
“Everything was done in this trial to prevent the Commission from accounting to the people in whose name they hold office,” Mr Mahama emphasised.
