The Supreme Court is expected to give judgement for the 2020 presidential election petition, today, Thursday, March 4, 2021.
He prayed the Supreme Court to declare the results of the elections as “unconstitutional, null and void and of no effect whatsoever.”
He also prayed the Court to enjoin the EC to re-run the elections between him and Nana Addo.
During the hearing of the case, there have been arguments when Mahama filed a motion to subpoena Jean Mensa to mount the witness box to testify on the conduct of the general elections.
But the Supreme Court on Tuesday, February 16, 2020, ruled that the petitioner cannot reopen his case.
Chief Justice Anin Yeboah quoted several authorities to buttress the court’s position on why Mahama cannot reopen the case.
He said: “A mere filing of a witness statement is not an election to testify…We accordingly refuse that application”.
