Justice Dongban-Mensem spoke while playing host to a team from the International Foundation for Electoral Systems ,comprising of the Country Director, Hermann Thiel; Deputy Country Director, Seray Jah, and the Project Manager, Simon Fanto. She noted that if the manuals were made available on time for the judges to study and follow-up workshops organised, specifically to address issues to be raised by the 250 judges, who participated in the election petition tribunals, it will ease the trouble experienced due to insufficient time for the study and assimilation of the guidelines contained in the manual.
