Parliament has stated that allegations against Bagbin regarding the delayed recall of MPs are unfounded

Parliament has clarified that the allegations against the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, regarding the delayed recall of Members of Parliament (MPs) are unfounded and unfortunate.

In response to inquiries on social media about the whereabouts of the Speaker, Parliament explained that the house is currently on recess in accordance with its calendar and Standing Order 57.

“Parliament is aware of the need for collaboration and consensus building because of its hung nature and the Speaker, has sought throughout his tenure to remain neutral and fair in his dealings.

“Therefore, to insinuate that the Speaker is not heeding calls for a recall because of his political allegiance to the National Democratic Congress is unfounded and unfortunate.

“Parliament wishes to state that barring any emergency or unforeseen circumstance, it is likely to reconvene in the latter part of May 2024. Parliament reiterates its commitment to upholding the rule-based nature of the institution and fostering effective governance for the benefit of our nation,” the statement added.
