In a bold move, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has declared itself the new majority in Parliament, despite a recent Supreme Court order.

The declaration came during a press conference held shortly after the court's decision to stay the Speaker's ruling that had temporarily granted the NDC a majority status.

The Speaker of Parliament had declared four seats vacant, which briefly shifted the balance of power in favor of the NDC.

However, the Supreme Court's stay of execution nullified this ruling, pending a substantive case seeking an interpretation of the relevant constitutional article.

Undeterred by the court's decision, the NDC leadership asserted their claim to the majority. "We are the new majority, we shall not bow or surrender, nothing will stop it," they declared, signaling their intention to continue their parliamentary activities and challenge the current status quo.

This development adds a new layer of complexity to the political landscape as the country approaches the December elections.

The NDC's defiance of the Supreme Court order underscores the high stakes and intense rivalry between the two major political parties.
