Madam Jean Mensa has asked journalists to deliver transparent reportage in the ongoing presidential and parliamentary elections.
Addressing the media, EC Chairperson Jean Mensah said the media plays a critical role in maintaining public trust.
She assured that the EC was prepared to provide the media with whatever details they needed in the ongoing elections.
According to her, the Commission has granted full access to media personnel across the country, including polling stations, constituency collation centres, regional collation centres, and the national collation centre.
“Today, the media will have access to all our centres across the country. As we are all aware, the commission has granted access to all our polling stations, our constituency collations centres, all our regional collations centres, and our national collations centres to the media. The media will first of all have to verify the information…. This is a testament to the bad news that the commission holds: bad news of transparency, bad news of accountability, bad news of integrity… We believe that the media will cover all aspects of our work; they will inject the needed transparency into all aspects of our work. This will provide the citizens with vital information and eliminate suspicions that have been characterised with our work.”
