1992 Constitution Cause Of Mistrust Among Political Parties

  Majority Leader and Minister-designate for Parliamentary Affairs, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, has made a case for the total overhaul of Ghana’s 1992 Constitution, citing what he said were anomalies that have brought about lack of trust among political parties.  Citing the appointment of the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, for instance, which the Constitution mandates the president to do without recourse to Parliament or the political parties, Mr Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu said that processes ought to have been made consultative so that all parties would have an input.   “When President Mahama had to bring in Charlotte Osei in place of Afari Gyan who had retired, my position at the time was that we should have the President submit the names for us [Parliament] to subject it to prior approval. [By so doing] the President would be forced to be more consultative in the appointment than usually is the case.
