The Constitution Review Committee (CRC) says it is on track to deliver its draft report on the review of Ghana’s 1992 Constitution to President John Dramani Mahama within the next month.
“We are working hard to finalise the draft report, and we expect to present it to the President by the end of September or early October,” the CRC’s Secretary, Dr Rainer Akumperigya, confirmed in an interview with Daily Graphic.
The draft follows months of consultations with key stakeholders, including the Council of State and the Trades Union Congress (TUC).

Issues raised during the process included limiting presidential terms, reducing the powers of the Presidency, electing MMDCEs, and revising the rule that ministers must be appointed from Parliament.
Dr Akumperigya stressed that the submission of the report would not mark the end of the committee’s work, as it would still be required to provide clarifications to Parliament and support the implementation phase.
