  • Summary

  • Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin announced an indefinite adjournment of parliamentary proceedings on October 22, following a chaotic session marked by disputes between MPs from the NPP and the NDC over majority control. During the announcement, he mentioned receiving a communication from the Supreme Court instructing him to pause a prior ruling that declared four parliamentary seats vacant, but he did not provide further details. He noted that while the House had the numbers to conduct business, they lacked the numbers to make decisions. With elections approaching in less than 50 days, MPs may need to return to their constituencies to campaign. Concerns were raised about the implications for the Guan Constituency and questions arose regarding the presence of military personnel in the House and the orders for their deployment.
