Minority  Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has announced an indefinite boycott of parliamentary proceedings, following Speaker Alban Bagbin’s decision to declare four seats vacant insisting he is the majority leader.

The ruling, which impacts MPs Cynthia Morrison (Agona West), Kwadjo Asante (Suhum), and Peter Kwakye Ackah (Amenfi Central), stems from their decision to contest the upcoming 2024 elections as independent candidates while Andrew Asiamah (Fomena) has decided to contest on the ticket of the NPP.

Bagbin’s ruling, based on constitutional provisions, holds that by declaring their independent candidacies or cross-carpeting to other political parties, the MPs have effectively vacated their parliamentary positions.

This development has shifted the balance of power in Parliament, with the National Democratic Congress (NDC) now holding 136 seats compared to the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) 135, making the NDC the majority caucus.

A visibly dissatisfied Afenyo-Markin led the NPP MPs in a walkout, expressing disappointment in a press conference a while ago, the now minority leader said his side will vigorously pursue their matter in court
