The Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC), Jean Mensa, has stated that nomination forms for presidential candidates in the 2024 elections will be reviewed and conducted fairly.
This statement comes on the back of the submission of nomination forms by the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.
Jean Mensa emphasized that there is sufficient time to address any errors identified in the forms, should corrections be needed.
Dr Bawumia submitted his nomination earlier today in the company of his wife Samira Bawumia, his running mate Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh and his wife Alma Pokua Adade-Prempeh.
Party executives, including the National Chairman, Stephen Ntim, General Secretary Justin Koduah Frimpong, Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin and other leading members of the NPP, were also at the EC headquarters to provide support and solidarity.
After receiving Dr. Bawumia’s forms, Jean Mensa highlighted that two teams have been established to carry out the review process.
Meanwhile, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, is also expected to file his nomination later in the day.
