Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin has announced that parliamentary candidates whose election results were nullified by the Supreme Court on Friday, December 27, 2024, will not be eligible to be sworn in as Members of Parliament on January 6, 2025.
The Supreme Court’s decision nullified the re-collated results for the Okaikwei Central, Ablekuma North, Tema Central, and Techiman South constituencies, citing irregularities in the re-collation process.
This ruling stemmed from a legal challenge by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) against a High Court decision on December 20, which had instructed the Electoral Commission (EC) to re-collate results in nine disputed constituencies. The NDC opposed the directive, arguing that the re-collation was unlawful, lacked merit, and compromised the transparency and integrity of the electoral process.
Addressing Parliament in Accra on Saturday, Bagbin stated that the Supreme Court’s ruling validated his stance that the declaration of the affected candidates as MPs-elect was unlawful.
