Lead lawyer for the NDC in the 2020 election petition, Tsatsu Tsikata, put Chairperson of the EC, Jean Adukwei Mensa, in an uncomfortable position today when he quizzed her on when exactly she noticed that she had made errors in the declaration of results.
“When did the first respondent and the Returning Officer of the Electoral Commission first realize that there were errors in the figures she had announced in her declaration of 9th December 2020? When? This is a question only one person in the world can answer,” he quizzed.
Although the Electoral Commission Chairperson did not respond to his question, trending videos of her facial expression the very moment he asked the question, showed a discomfort persona.
Twitter trends have been spiking over the video with many describing Tsatsu Tsikata as a master of the law.
Here are some reactions:
When next you mention TSATSU TSIKATA, put some respect on the name.

My Lords when did the chairperson of the electoral commission realized there was a mistake in the declaration. This is a question only one person in the world can answer, my Lords.

The only lawyer, in my humble opinion, who might be able to stand up to Tsatsu Tsikata would be Philip Addison. I am not so sure about the rest. pic.twitter.com/A7wQOdLAut

Tsatsu Tsikata didn’t only come to defend the law but he also came to school the Supreme Court judges.

Tsatsu Tsikata would allow you 2 hours to rant and then pick two lines from your own submissions to render all what you have said useless, under 1 minute.
