Constitution, I hereby write to your honorable office to invoke ARTICLE 22(1)(i)(ii)(a) and (b) against the actions and inactions of THE ELECTORAL COMMISSIONER (AFFUL
DAVIDSON BREW). Your Lordships, the actions and inactions of AFFUL DAVIDSON BREW is contrary to the function and duties of the Electoral Commission which serves as an independent body to organize and supervise the upcoming 2022/2023 SRC general election.

Your Lordships, I MUSAH IBRAHIM MOHAMMED NWEINYIMBU herein make the following counts,
1. The Chairman of the Commission (AFFUL DAVIDSON BREW) has violated the commission’s code of ethics, the electoral processes and procedures by asking a hopeful aspirant to step down from contesting the treasurership position of the Local NUGS to contest for a different portfolio.
2. The Chairman of the Commission (AFFUL DAVIDSON BREW) has exhibited a Conflict of Interest by being an Administrator of a WhatsApp Campaign Platform for a hopeful aspirant (JOYCE OSEI OWUSU).
3. The Chairman of the Commission (AFFUL DAVIDSON BREW) has violated The Executive Officers Oath, The Oath of Secrecy and the Oath of Allegiance and therefore has caused a series of psychological effect among aspirants and the entire student populace.
