Ga Mantse's exclusion of Jean Mensah from the Palace raises concerns; the reason is revealed.

His Royal Majesty King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, also known as the Ga Mantse, is still a key figure in Ghana's traditional leadership as the defender of Ga culture and customs. His every action is being observed by everyone, including those outside the Ga community. According to recent online rumors, the Ga Mantse allegedly denied Jean Mensa, the chairperson of Ghana's Electoral Commission (EC), access to his castle. However, no credible source or official declaration has confirmed this modification. Because of the EC's lax voter registration procedures, Jean Mensa has been the main topic of discussion in relation to Ghana's 2024 elections.

Opposition parties, notably the National Democratic Congress (NDC), have filed lawsuits against the EC because to concerns raised about the openness and accessibility of voter registration. The Ga Mantse have not forgotten their cultural and customary responsibilities despite all of this debate. In addition to strengthening ties between the Ghanaian Ga people and the diaspora, his recent historic trip to the UK for the diaspora celebration of Homowo showed his dedication to the international promotion and preservation of Ga culture. Even though Jean Mensa continues to face criticism for her crucial role as chair of the electoral commission, her efforts are crucial to the legitimacy of Ghana's elections.

Her challenges—lawsuits and public scrutiny, for example—emphasize how challenging it is to manage a democratic process in a contentious political environment. Unfounded rumors linking Jean Mensa to the Ga Mantse's castle could be explained by exaggeration surrounding the upcoming elections rather than real events. By giving guidance and urging composure, traditionally strong leaders like the Ga Mantse can unite their people during politically sensitive times. Verifying any claims or actions related to them is essential to preventing the spread of misleading information.

As Ghana prepares for the 2024 elections, Jean Mensa and the Ga Mantse continue to play significant but different roles. While the EC Chairperson negotiates the challenges of holding free and fair elections, the Ga Mantse preserves and advances Ga culture, fostering community cohesion and history. Last but not least, His Royal Majesty King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, the Ga Mantse, is a key player in Ghana's traditional leadership, upholding the values and traditions of the Ga people. Despite the political controversies surrounding individuals such as Jean Mensa, the Ga Mantse has remained steadfast in his efforts to conserve and advance Ga culture globally.
