On October 31, he announced that Members of Parliament would be recalled for a critical session set to take place on Thursday, November 7, at the prestigious Accra International Conference Centre.

This emergency meeting came in light of pressing national issues that demanded immediate attention. Citing Article 112 (3) of the Constitution along with Standing Orders 5 and 53, Speaker Bagbin invoked his authority, emphasizing the need for Parliament to convene in the public interest.

While the specifics of the agenda remained undisclosed, the timing of the session hinted at the gravity of the matters to be tackled.

The recall followed a significant and tumultuous period in Parliament, which had been adjourned indefinitely on October 22 due to escalating disputes over majority representation. Tensions were further fueled by recent directives from the Supreme Court, notably one that denied Speaker Bagbin’s request to halt a contentious order.

As the clock approached 10 a.m. on November 7, parliamentarians readied themselves to confront the urgent matters at hand. The anticipation in the air was palpable, with the nation holding its breath for resolutions that could potentially shape the future.

The session promised to be intense—a critical moment in the ongoing narrative of governance and democracy.
