The Chief Executive Officer of the Social Investment Fund (SIF), Lawyer Abass Nurudeen, says the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) has authorised the Chief Justice’s ruling disregarding the petition in opposition to the Electoral Commission Chairperson and her deputies.

Chief Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie has dominated that there’s no prima facie case to continue with petitions in quest of the removing of the Electoral Commission Chair, Jean Mensa, and her deputies, Dr. Bossman Eric Asare and Samuel Tettey.

The choice used to be showed in a observation issued on Wednesday, February 18, by means of the Minister of Government Communications.

Reacting to the ruling on Kumasi-based Nhyria FM’s “Kro Yi Mu Nsem“, Abass Nurudeen mentioned NDC supporters are upset with the ruling, however the birthday celebration will admire the verdict.

Abass, who may be the Ashanti Regional Communications Director of the NDC, appealed to birthday celebration trustworthy to stick calm, emphasizing the birthday celebration’s dedication to democratic values in spite of their sadness with the ruling.

“I’ll urge them to stay calm and understand that being in government doesn’t automatically guarantee favorable outcomes in every case,” he mentioned.

“As an NDC member, I think Madam Jean Mensah, Dr. Bossman Eric Asare, and Samuel Tettey shouldn’t remain in their EC positions, given what happened in the 2020 and 2024 general elections. These petitions should be a wake-up call for them.”

Dr. Henry Kwabena Kokofu, a former EPA Executive Director and NPP stalwart, hailed the Chief Justice’s ruling at the petition in opposition to the EC bosses and OSP as a progress for Ghana’s democracy.
