This is a sign of victory – Mahama on Speaker’s declaration of 4 seats vacant

-

National Democratic Congress (NDC) Presidential candidate, John Mahama is excited over the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin’s declaration of four parliamentary seats vacant.

The former President has said it is a sign of the NDC’s victory on December 7, 2024.

“So for me, God is even showing a sign of what is going to happen because even before we have cast one single ballot, the NDC has become the majority,” he said at a campaign rally in Kpone Katamanso.

Speaker Bagbin’s ruling follows a motion filed by Tamale South MP Haruna Iddrisu, seeking to have the seats of four colleagues who have filed nominations to contest the upcoming elections as independent candidates vacant.

With this declaration, the NDC who now has 136 seats will be the Majority and the NPP with 135 seats as the Minority.

However, Mr Mahama has charged NDC supporters to solidify this position by performing well on December 7.

“That is when the people of Ghana are going to cast their votes and I know that 7th December 2024 is going to be a watershed event that will change the course of Ghana’s history,” he said.

The former President also reflected on his campaign trail, saying that after engaging with citizens across 10 regions, the message is clear that “Ghana needs change.”
