Race to become Speaker of Parliament
As the life of the 7th Parliament expires on January 6, 2021, the race to nominate the Speaker of Parliament for the 8th Parliament has begun.
Per the “Hung Parliament” system of parliamentary practice, it will be incumbent on both parties to reach a compromise in order to have a smooth process in parliament.
For now, after the 2020 elections, the NPP and NDC have 137 seats each with an Independent Candidate who has expressed interest in voting on matters with his mother party, the NPP.
Right now, both parties can equally nominate the Speaker.
Within the NPP, many names are being rumoured as the best for the job. Some of the names are discussed in this article.
