The embattled Member of Parliament (MP) for Kpandai Constituency, Mathew Nyindam, has expressed gratitude to the Minority in Parliament for showing solidarity amid the ongoing dispute over his parliamentary seat.
Speaking in an interview on Adom FM’s morning show Dwaso Nsem, Nyindam said the support from the Minority has highlighted that he has not been treated fairly.
“I will thank the Minority for showing brotherhood and letting everyone know that I have not been treated well. On that basis, I thank them,” he said.
He added that even some members on the Majority side acknowledge that he has been unfairly treated.
“No one will be happy about the disruptions that happened in Parliament, but sometimes, if you have no one to speak for you, what else can you do?” he said.
Nyindam’s comments follow Speaker Alban Bagbin’s decision to defer a ruling on the disputed Kpandai parliamentary seat.
Minority Chief Whip Frank Annoh-Dompreh had argued that no government business should proceed until the matter was resolved. However, the Speaker ruled, after a voice vote, that parliamentary sittings would continue.
The Minority responded by chanting and attempting to disrupt the session, leading to a heated standoff between the two sides of the House.
Earlier in the day, tensions escalated when the Minority blocked Mahama Ayariga from responding to demands to withdraw a December 4, 2025, letter from the Clerk to Parliament, further fueling the dispute.
