The Constitutional Review Committee (CRC) is scheduled to submit its final report to President John Dramani Mahama today, December 22, at the Jubilee House in Accra.
The Minister for Government Communication, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, announced in a Facebook post that the presentation is expected to take place at 2:00 p.m.
President Mahama has earlier disclosed that the committee briefed him on its preliminary findings about three weeks ago. Speaking during a separate engagement with the National Peace Council at the Jubilee House on Wednesday, December 10, he described the initial findings as significant and assured the public that the final report would be made available once it is formally submitted.
“They met me three weeks ago and made a presentation of some of the findings they were going to make. They are quite interesting. They intend to present the final results on December 22. Once the final report is presented, we will make it known to the rest of the nation,” the President said.
The eight-member CRC was inaugurated by President Mahama as part of efforts to review selected provisions of the 1992 Constitution.
The committee is chaired by Professor H. Kwasi Prempeh, Executive Director of the Ghana Centre for Democratic Development (CDD-Ghana). Its members include former Supreme Court judge Justice Sophia Adinyira, Professor Kwame Karikari, former Electoral Commission Chairperson Mrs Charlotte Osei, Dr Godwin Djokoto, Ibrahim Tanko Amidu, Dr Esi Ansah and Dr Rainer Akumperigeya.
