Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin has adjourned the House indefinitely due to the absence of business for lawmakers to deliberate on, following the failure of the Business committee to meet and prepare the necessary agenda for the floor.

The recall session, initiated by the Majority caucus, had been expected to address several critical issues.

However, as the Majority caucus failed to appear in the Chamber, Speaker Bagbin expressed disappointment, noting that the lack of their presence stalled proceedings.

In his address to the House, Speaker Bagbin highlighted the procedural challenges that prevented Parliament from moving forward, underscoring that without committee input and an agenda, the session could not proceed as planned.

Bagbin emphasized the importance of collaboration between both caucuses to ensure a functional and effective legislative process, particularly in addressing urgent national matters.

This latest adjournment comes amid ongoing tensions between the Majority and Minority caucuses, which have impacted parliamentary proceedings in recent weeks. With the indefinite adjournment, it remains uncertain when Parliament will reconvene to address the stalled issues, leaving the legislative agenda for this session in a state of flux.
