The Supreme Court has declared his decision to grant the stay of execution of Speaker Alban Bagbin’s declaration of four seats vacant because no by-elections could lawfully be held to replace the affected MPs between October 17, 2024, and January 7, 2025.
Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo, the chair of the five-member panel that presided over the matter, stated that this was a factor that weighed heavily on the Supreme Court’s decision to grant the stay of execution.
