The Electoral Commission of Ghana has denied rumours that soon after declaring the 2020 election results, the Chairperson, Mrs Jean Mensa tried travelling out of the country.
Since yesterday, December 11, 2020 it was circulated on social media that Mrs Mensa travelled to Virginia and when she got there she was bounced back.
But in a statement, the EC said, “The attention of the Electoral Commission has been drawn to information circulating on social media claiming that its Chairperson travelled outside the country after declaring the 2020 Presidential Election results. We wish to state that Mrs. Jean Mensa, the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, as well as all the Commissioners are at post discharging their legally mandated duties.”
The EC has therefore urged the public to disregard this fake news.
