In a major political development, the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Sumana Bagbin, has officially declared four parliamentary seats vacant. The affected constituencies are Amenfi Central, Fomena, Agona West, and Suhum.

The decision follows a formal petition submitted to the Speaker by Haruna Iddrisu, a prominent Member of Parliament from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and former Minority Leader. The petition triggered extensive debates and arguments within Parliament, with both the Majority and Minority sides presenting their cases.

Speaker Bagbin’s declaration is expected to spark political realignments as the vacant seats pave the way for potential by-elections. The ruling and opposition parties will now prepare to contest these key constituencies in the coming months.
