Election 2020 is the first election to be fully funded by the government since democracy was restored in the country in 1992.
It is one election which had no donor funding to support the election management processes, the Chair of the Electoral Commission (EC), Mrs Jean Mensa, has disclosed.
Disclosing this at the opening ceremony of the Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) workshop on the 2020 election in Accra yesterday, she urged Ghanaians to recognise and celebrate the achievements of the 2020 electoral process.
Mrs Mensa said beyond that feat, which needed to be celebrated, the processes leading to the 2020 election also involved a number of best practices that must be documented to serve as a guide for future elections.

The Electoral Commission (EC) is conducting a post-election assessment with key stakeholders to further strengthen its processes, the Chairperson of the EC, Mrs Jean Mensa, has said.
“We are not resting on the successes of the recent elections. We are currently in the process of reflection and discussions to ensure that our electoral processes are further strengthened,” she stressed.
Mrs Mensa stated this when members of the Network for Women’s Rights (NETRIGHT) paid a courtesy call on her last Tuesday to commend her for spearheading successful presidential and parliamentary elections in December 2020.
The meeting, which brought together some prominent women leaders, also sought to explore areas of partnership including how they could support the EC chairperson and other females heading public institutions in the country.
