Ghana's Parliament will sit on December 16 to deliberate on pertinent issues bothering the country.

A statement from the office of the Speaker made this announcement.

This comes after the Speaker declined a recall from the NPP caucus in Parliament for Parliament to sit on November 28 and 29.

The Speaker in a memo declining the recall said "Consequently, it will not be fair to exercise my discretion in favour of your request to summon Members of Parliament at this time to a two-day sitting to deliberate on 22 items you consider urgent or outstanding government businesses". "It is worth noting that having regard to the practice and deliberations of the House, I wonder how the proposed 22 items could be transacted within two days. "I accordingly suggest that government prioritises these businesses together with others not captured by your memo for consideration after the conduct of the general election on December 7, 2024," Mr Bagbin's memo stated.
