The speculated ‘showdown’ set to take place in Parliament on Tuesday, October 22, 2024, between the Majority and Minority sides has sparked wide interests among Ghanaians, propelling Parliament to the top of the trending topics.

Other trending topics include Augusco, Owass, #AlanForPresident, Speaker, St. Louis, Salifu Amoako, Opoku Ware, Wesley Girls, and #NSMQ2024.

Here’s a breakdown of why these topics are trending:

Parliament

Ghanaian netizens are eagerly anticipating the events that will unfold when Members of Parliament reconvene today.

This comes in the wake of the Supreme Court’s ruling, which stayed the Speaker’s decision to declare four seats vacant.

The Speaker’s ruling had made the NDC caucus the Majority, forcing the NPP caucus to become the Minority.

However, the Supreme Court’s ruling has shifted the dynamics, meaning that if the Speaker adheres to it, the NPP will retain its Majority status while the NDC will revert to their Minority status.

Alban Bagbin is in the trends following a cryptic message he posted on his Facebook account on the eve of Parliament sitting today.

The Speaker posted on his Facebook page saying, “God bless our homeland Ghana and make it great and strong beyond any single individual or institution.”
