Some supporters of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) have gathered at Parliament House ahead of today's sitting, as tensions rise over the leadership composition following a controversial ruling by Speaker Alban Bagbin.
On Thursday, October 17, Speaker Bagbin declared four parliamentary seats vacant, three of which belong to the NPP, with the fourth held by the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).
This declaration sparked a leadership crisis, shifting the balance of power in Parliament.
With 136 seats, the NDC, previously the Minority, has now claimed to be the Majority, surpassing the NPP, which now holds 135 seats.
