The Electoral Commission (EC) has called on all stakeholders to support its ongoing efforts to complete the remaining electoral processes following the 2024 general elections.
In a media briefing, the Deputy Chairman of the EC in charge of Corporate Services, Dr Bossman Asare emphasised the importance of cooperation and trust to ensure a transparent and credible conclusion of its work.
He highlighted the Commission’s constitutional independence as stipulated in Article 46 of the 1992 Constitution.
"The Electoral Commission, in the performance of its functions, shall not be subject to the direction or control of any person or authority," Dr. Bossman stated, reiterating the EC’s mandate to act impartially and independently in electoral matters.
The Commission urged political parties, candidates, and the public to allow the EC to fulfill its constitutional duties without interference.
"The Commission urges all stakeholders to support the Electoral Commission, for the Commission to be able to carry out its mandate to the conclusion, and once we are able to carry out our mandate to the conclusion, If anyone has any adverse findings, then the person can proceed. But as I stated the law is very clear that we are well mandated to perform the functions we are performing."
