The 9th Parliament of the Fourth Republic is shaping up nicely, with all signs pointing to a National Democratic Congress majority in the house.

Early results indicate that not only did the NDC enjoy the scalp of some NPP MPs, but they also flipped some constituencies that have historically been the preserve of the NPP.

The shockingly embarrassing performance in the 2024 election has seen some of their experienced and hitherto untouchable MPs lose their seats in a manner no one imagined would happen.
