In a dramatic development on Tuesday, October 22, Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin indefinitely adjourned proceedings, citing unresolved issues regarding the composition of Parliament.
This decision marks a significant escalation in the ongoing tensions between the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP), both of whom are locked in a heated dispute over which party controls the Majority in the House.
The controversy traces back to Speaker Bagbin's decision on October 17 to declare four parliamentary seats vacant, a ruling that has intensified the rivalry between the two major parties.
The affected seats, which include constituencies from both the NPP and NDC, have become the focal point of a legal and political battle.
