The Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, will today, July 22, swear in the Member of Parliament-elect for Ablekuma North, Ewurabena Aubynn.
The ceremony follows her victory in the close contest in a rerun on Friday, July 11, 2025, in 19 polling stations following a prolonged dispute over the December 2024 results.
She secured 34,090 votes against the New Patriotic Party (NPP) candidate, Nana Akua Afriyie’s 33,881.
Her victory has increased the National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) parliamentary tally to 185 seats.
Meanwhile, four independent MPs — Kwame Asare Obeng (A Plus) of Gomoa Central, Worlasi Kpeli of Afram Plains North, Nandaya Yaw Stanley of Wulensi, and Ohene Kwame Frimpong of Asante Akim North — have declared support for the NDC, giving the party a two-thirds majority in Parliament.
