Lead Counsel for the Petitioner in the ongoing 2020 election petition, Tsatsu Tsikata has told the Supreme Court that they have the option of filing for a subpoena to compel the Chairperson of the EC to mount the witness box.
Mr Tsikata is currently arguing before the Court to the effect that the Chairperson of the EC, Madam Jean Mensah as the returning officer of the Presidential election must be compelled to mount the witness box for cross-examination.
This was after the counsel for the 1st respondent, Justin Amenuvor told the Court that he will not be presenting any witnesses because he believes the court has adduced sufficient evidence to decide on the petition.
In his argument, Mr Tsikata reminded the court even if the EC Chair refuses to testify, they have the right to file a subpoena to compel her to testify, since she is mandated to account for her work.
