The Supreme Court has deferred the ruling on the four vacant seats in parliament to Tuesday, November 12, 2024.

The Supreme Court on Monday concluded arguments presented by the plaintiff and the Attorney-General, as counsel for the Speaker was not present in court during the hearing.

In the previous proceedings, Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo directed Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin to submit relevant documents by Wednesday, November 6.
This order came after the Speaker’s counsel, Thaddeus Sory, sought additional time to consult with the Speaker and obtain necessary instructions for the case.

However, the Speaker Alban Bagbin failed to submit a statement of case in the Supreme Court regarding the legal dispute over the vacant parliamentary seats.
