The Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, Jean Mensa, has asked political parties to accept the results of the 2024 general elections.
The EC Chairperson, Jean Mensa, encouraged political leaders to accept the results of the polls and guaranteed transparent elections during the Democracy Cup presentation to the EC by the leadership of Parliament in Accra on Wednesday.
“Just like the football match we serve as the midwives that birth the elections, we are the referees that conduct, that lay the elections and the processes that lead to the election day itself.
“So as referees we are committed to ensuring that our activities from now in the lead up to the election and all our electoral processes are transparent, they are open, they are fair, and they involve the collaboration of our key stakeholders, that is, the political parties and the citizenry.”
“We commit to ensuring transparency in all aspects of our work…We will commit to maintaining and showing that level of transparency across all aspects of our work.
“So, we also want to entreat and call upon the contestants of the election to accept the outcomes of the election. Surely there will be a winner and surely there will be losers,” she stated.
