Bagin has not met Akufo Addo to negotiate over declaring four seats vacant

Bagbin and Nana Addo

Parliamentary House has debunked allegations in relating to a video circulating on social media showing speaker Bagbin has met with president Nana Akufo Addo to negotiate a settlement in respect of the pronouncement by the Rt. Hon. Speaker on Thursday, 17th October, 2024.

The video is purporting that after Speaker Bagbin declared four (4) Members of Parliament seats vacant, he met with the president to negotiate his way out after the New Patriotic Party refused the declaration.

The release clarified that “The video in question was taken on 4th July 2024, when the Rt. Hon. Speaker led a delegation to present the maiden democracy cup to the President” and not as stipulated on social media.
