Jean Mensa, Prof. Attafuah To Appear Before Parliament Over New CI On Tuesday

In the wake of the controversial Constitutional Instrument (CI) seeking to make Ghana Card the sole registration document, the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC), Jean Adukwei Mensa and the Executive Secretary of the National Identification Authority (NIA) Prof. Kenneth Attafuah are expected to appear before Parliament on Tuesday, February 28, 2023.

According to the Majority Leader, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, the two personalities are expected to brief the House on the commission’s proposed Constitutional Instrument (CI).

This meeting comes after Madam Jean Mensa’s absence in the House which caused the Minority in Parliament to oppose the briefing by other officials of the Electoral Commission.

Despite the earlier setback on Thursday, the Majority Leader, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, announced that the EC Chairperson, Jean Mensa, will appear before the legislators on Tuesday.

“The EC officials had established contact with the Chairperson, who had agreed to come down for us to have the committee of the whole meeting, but she delayed because the Minority MPs were picking up their parliamentary forms. So on Tuesday, she will appear, and we will continue with the committee of the whole meeting,” Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu has indicated.
