It has come to light that Franklin Cudjoe, the president of IMANI Ghana, a policy think tank group, has revealed a shocking truth about Jean Mensa, the current head of Ghana's Electoral Commission. In 2015, when Jean Mensa was working at the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA), she advocated for a forensic audit of the voter's register before the 2016 elections. However, now that she is in charge of the Electoral Commission, she is resisting calls for an audit.

Franklin Cudjoe shared an old news article from 2015, where Jean Mensa signed a communiqué calling for the Electoral Commission to engage an independent body to audit the voter's register. The communiqué stated that the current register had irregularities and that a credible and external organization should be hired to audit it. It also emphasized that the cost of auditing the register should not be a barrier to ensuring a credible and acceptable register for the 2016 elections.

The revelation has raised questions about the Electoral Commission's transparency and accountability. Why is Jean Mensa, who once advocated for an audit, now resisting it? The public is calling for transparency and accountability, and Franklin Cudjoe's revelation has added fuel to the fire. The Electoral Commission's reluctance to audit the register has sparked concerns about the integrity of the electoral process.
