Professor Ransford Gyampo, a Political Scientist at the University of Ghana, has discussed recent developments in Parliament regarding independent candidates and their implications for the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).
The current Second Deputy Speaker, an independent MP, has filed to contest the 2024 elections on the NPP ticket, while other NPP MPs, Cynthia Morrison and K.
Asante, plan to run as independents.
This situation raises concerns about the NPP's slim majority in the 8th Parliament.
