Jean Mensa, Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC), has clarified that the Commission is not involved in the deployment of military personnel or security arrangements for the elections.

Her comments came after the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) announced the deployment of military personnel to designated locations for election security, though they emphasized that no military officers would be stationed at polling stations.

Speaking to the media on December 7, Mensa reiterated, “In terms of security, we have no hand in it and we do not make security arrangements,” aiming to clarify the distinct roles of the EC and security agencies in the electoral process.
