Parliament Notifies Electoral Commission of Vacancy Following Court-Ordered Rerun in Kpandai

Parliament has formally notified the Electoral Commission (EC) of a vacancy in the legislature after the High Court in Tamale ordered a rerun of the Kpandai Parliamentary Election.

In a letter dated December 4, 2025, the Clerk to Parliament, Ebenezer Ahumah Djietror, informed the EC Chairperson, Mrs. Jean Mensa, that the vacancy was occasioned by the court’s directive. The High Court ruling, delivered on November 24, 2025, ordered a fresh parliamentary election in the constituency as part of its decision in Suit Number NR/TL/HC/E13/22/25, in which the Clerk to Parliament was listed as the 4th respondent.

Citing Article 112(5) of the 1992 Constitution, the Clerk explained that the correspondence serves as the official notice required to initiate the processes for conducting a new parliamentary election in the Kpandai constituency.

The letter concluded by confirming that, in accordance with the law, the Electoral Commission has been duly notified to proceed with the necessary arrangements.
