Unconstitutional Declaration: The Supreme Court ruled that the Speaker of Parliament's declaration of four parliamentary seats as vacant was unconstitutional. The court's decision was based on a 5-2 majority verdict, affirming the application by Alexander Afenyo-Markin.
Affected MPs: The ruling specifically addressed the seats of Cynthia Morrison (Agona West), Kwadwo Asante (Suhum), Andrew Amoako Asiamah (Fomena), and Peter Kwakye Ackah (Amenfi Central). These MPs had their seats declared vacant by the Speaker, which the court found to be unconstitutional.
Majority Decision: The majority decision was supported by Chief Justice Gertrude Sackey Torkornoo, Justice Mariama Owusu, Justice Samuel K.
Asiedu, Justice Ernest Gaewu, and Justice Yaw Asare Darko. Justices Avril Lovelace Johnson and Amadu Tanko dissented, raising concerns about jurisdiction.
