The second witness for former President John Dramani Mahama in the election petition hearing, Dr Michael Kpessa-Whyte, yesterday denied a suggestion by counsel for the Electoral Commission (EC) that he (the witness) had left the EC ‘strong room’ when he realised that the petitioner had lost the presidential election.
According to the witness, it was not true that he, together with his other colleague in the strong room, had left the strong room when they realised that the petitioner had lost the election.
Dr Kpessa-Whyte was responding to a suggestion put to him by counsel for the EC, Mr Justin Amenuvor, that he had left the room because he realised Mr Mahama had lost the election.
