The Minority in Parliament has cautioned that Parliament must never act ahead of the law, insisting that administrative decisions should not pre-empt ongoing judicial processes or create what it describes as “manufactured vacancies” in the House. “Parliament must not move faster than the law; administrative letters must not outrun judicial processes; and no arm of government should lend itself to the creation of manufactured vacancies in the House,” the Minority stressed. The comments come after the Supreme Court, by a 4–1 majority, quashed the judgment of the Tamale High Court which had purported to annul the election of Matthew Nyindam and ordered a rerun in the Kpandai constituency. The apex court held that the election petition was filed outside the strict statutory timelines prescribed by law, thereby stripping the High Court of jurisdiction. They noted that the letter to the Electoral Commission, issued on the back of a single first-instance High Court judgment, triggered preparations for a December 30, 2025 rerun, plans that were later halted by the Supreme Court.
