The NDC should not think they are men above us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This bold statement comes amidst rising tensions between the two parties fighting over the majority seat in parliament<\/p>\n<p>Recently, the Minority, which is the NDC, decided to take over the Majority&#8217;s seats, and things got chaotic, This move is seen as a response to Speaker Alban Bagbin&#8217;s ruling on October 17, where he declared four parliamentary seats vacant. This decision effectively reduced the NPP&#8217;s numbers, shifting the balance of power in favor of the NDC.<\/p>\n<p>Alhaji Opass stated that the Speaker of Parliament has no right to interpret the law unless the Supreme Court does so. The speaker&#8217;s role is limited to facilitating parliamentary proceedings rather than making judicial decisions.<\/p>\n<p>the speaker plays a crucial role in interpreting parliamentary rules and procedures. When it comes to interpreting laws, the Supreme Court is indeed the highest authority <\/p>\n<p>According to Article 93(2) of the Ghanaian Constitution, the legislative power is vested in Parliament, but the Supreme Court has the final say on constitutional and legal matters<\/p>\n<p>Alhaji Opass called on the NDC to respect the democratic process and await the outcome of the December 7 elections.<\/p>\n<p>If the NDC truly desires change, they should wait until December 7 and allow the Ghanaians  to decide, resorting to violence or disputes over parliamentary majority is unnecessary and undermines Ghana&#8217;s democratic institutions.<\/p>\n<p>The December 7 elections will determine the rightful leaders of our country. Let us allow the electoral process to unfold peacefully and respectfully,&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Credit Awal Adams <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This blog is managed by the content creator and not GhanaWeb, its affiliates, or employees.
