Member of Parliament for Kpandai, Matthew Nyindam, has said that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is free to pursue any further legal options following the Supreme Court’s decision to restore his parliamentary seat.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, Mr Nyindam emphasized his respect for the rule of law, noting that he cannot prevent the NDC from taking additional legal steps if they choose to do so.
“If the NDC has any other measure they want to take, they can take it. The law works, and we all abide by it,” he stated.
He further noted that the Supreme Court’s 4–1 majority decision clearly reinstates him as the duly elected MP and that the court is expected to formally notify Parliament and the Clerk ahead of the resumption of parliamentary sittings.
“The full ruling will be out by February 6, and Parliament resumes on the 3rd. The Supreme Court will officially communicate its decision for me to resume my parliamentary duties,” he added.
The Supreme Court overturned a Tamale High Court ruling that had annulled Mr Nyindam’s election as MP for Kpandai, thereby confirming the validity of his victory in the December 7, 2024 polls.
The apex court granted a certiorari application filed by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) MP, challenging the High Court’s jurisdiction to nullify the election. Full reasons for the judgment are expected on February 6, 2026.
