The commendation, according to the women-centred groups, was indeed in recognition of a well-deserved success following the meticulous preparation and conduct of the presidential and parliamentary elections on December 7, 2020.
In a press release signed by the Executive Director of ABANTU for Development, Dr Mrs Rose Mensah Kutin, said Mrs Mensa’s success was also by extension a triumph for many other Ghanaian women and men, especially those who believed that gender inclusion and women’s heightened visibility and leadership were critical in national development.
