National Democratic Congress (NDC) stalwart, Joyce Bawah, has called for the immediate resignation of Electoral Commission (EC) Chairperson, Jean Mensa. According to Bawah, Mensa has compromised her integrity and must "respect herself" by stepping down from her position.

Bawah's comments come amidst growing tensions between the NDC and the EC, particularly with regards to the recent presidential and parliamentary elections. The NDC has raised several concerns about the conduct of the elections, including allegations of bias and irregularities.

Joyce Bawah's statement is seen as a reflection of the NDC's growing frustration with the EC's handling of the elections. The party has been vocal in its criticism of the EC, accusing it of failing to ensure a free and fair electoral process.

Bawah's call for Mensa's resignation is likely to escalate the tensions between the NDC and the EC. The EC has maintained that the elections were conducted fairly and transparently, and has rejected the NDC's allegations of bias and irregularities.

The NDC's concerns about the EC's conduct of the elections are shared by some civil society organizations and election observers. These groups have called for an independent investigation into the allegations of electoral irregularities and bias.

Despite the growing criticism, Jean Mensa has maintained her position that the EC conducted the elections fairly and transparently. However, the controversy surrounding the elections is likely to continue, with the NDC and other opposition parties pushing for reforms to the electoral process.

In the midst of this controversy, Joyce Bawah's call for Jean Mensa's resignation is likely to add fuel to the fire. The situation is being closely watched by Ghanaians and the international community, who are eager to see how the controversy will be resolved.
