Controversy The Electoral Commission chaired by Jean was cautioned by the former president of Ghana John Mahama not to compile a new voter's register. He claimed there is not much time left for the general election to compile a new voters' register. He said Jean Mensah and her outfit will be held responsible if the country turns into a turmoil after the 2020 general elections take place. Demonstrations took place across the country in three cities Tamale, Kumasi and Accra to sound their view against the compilation. During the collation after the 2020 election, Jean Mensa is alleged to have sent the representatives of the NDC in the National Collation Centre to convey a message to their flagbearer but however proceeded to announce the election results after they departed with her message. The 2020 election declaration made by Jean Mensa was declared as flawed and a mathematical impossibility by several groups in Ghana with a group called the Democratic Credentials Network Ghana demanding her resignation. In the aftermath of her declaration, the Electoral Commission issued an unsigned press release clarifying the disparities in the election declaration. During the 2021 Election Petition Hearing at the Ghana Supreme Court, Jean Mensa through her lawyer refused to mount the witness box to be cross examined by the petitioners lawyers .
