The Supreme Court of Ghana has released its full reasoning for the decision to declare as unconstitutional the decision of Speaker Alban Bagbin to declare four seats vacant.

On Tuesday, November 12, the Supreme Court by a 5-2 majority decision upheld the suit filed by Alexander Afenyo-Markin.

The two dissenting justices thought the apex court did not have jurisdiction over this matter.

The suit filed by Afenyo-Markin brought a stalemate in Parliament as the NDC members assumed the Majority position based on the Speaker's ruling.
