Matthew Nyindam is the Member of Parliament for Kpandai
The Member of Parliament for Kpandai, Matthew Nyindam, has stated that he is unmoved by the High Court ruling that annulled the 2024 parliamentary election in his constituency, insisting he would easily return to Parliament if a rerun is held.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, he expressed confidence that he would win again if elections were held today because the people of his constituency know his capabilities.
“I’m still the MP for Kpandai. What they are doing does not move me. The people of Kpandai know me. The constituency knows my capabilities, and I am confident of returning to Parliament,” he said.
NDC reacts to Kpandai parliamentary election rerun
Matthew Nyindam’s comments follow a decision by the Tamale High Court on November 24, 2025, directing the Electoral Commission to conduct a new election within 30 days after a petition challenged the outcome of the December 7, 2024, polls.
Nyindam has responded by filing notices of appeal and a stay of execution in an effort to stop the implementation of the court’s order.
In an interview on Citi FM, he insisted that the certified figures validate his victory and that he still holds the mandate of the people.
“If you look at the pink sheets, it is on record that they have admitted that every single pink sheet was given to all the political parties. I have my 152, they have theirs. If you put the results together, we have won the elections. Let me put it on record that I am still their MP,” he said.
While he says he trusts the legal process, he noted that he will participate fully in a rerun if the courts eventually uphold that directive.
Nyindam also claimed that the NDC is trying to use state institutions to remove him from office but maintained that he is not shaken.
“I am not afraid of a rerun. If genuinely we have to run, we won’t have a problem. But if you decide to pave your way through because you think you are in government and you can use state powers to coerce the people to vote for you, that is where we have a difficulty,” he stated.
