A formal petition has been submitted to President John Dramani Mahama to remove the Electoral Commission (EC) Chairperson, Jean Mensa from office.

The petitioner, Daniel Ofosu Appiah also wants the two deputies, Samuel Tetteh and Dr Bossman Eric Asare as well as EC member, Dr Peter Appiahene out of office.

The petition filed on January 27, 2025 cites a breach of fundamental human rights under Article 42 of the 1992 Constitution.

It also makes a point about constitutional breaches such as incompetence, bias, actions and inactions that undermine public confidence in the impartiality and integrity of the Commission contrary to Articles 23 and 296 of the 1992 constitution.
