The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Members of Parliament (MPs) has announced plans to boycott proceedings in the coming days.
Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin made this announcement during an interview on Thursday.
The protest comes in response to Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin's ruling, which declared four parliamentary seats vacant.
The Effutu MP revealed that the Majority Caucus will refrain from attending sessions until further notice, pending the outcome of a case currently before the Supreme Court.
"We informed the Speaker on Tuesday that the matter is before the Supreme Court, meaning we are awaiting interpretation.
So, with what has happened, we have to wait for the court to determine the issue, and we will abide by its ruling," Afenyo-Markin explained.
"We prefer to be on the side of the law rather than engage in confusion."
The ruling follows a motion filed by former Minority Leader and Tamale South MP, Haruna Iddrisu, who invoked Article 97 (1)(g) of the Constitution.
He challenged the status of some MPs who had crossed party lines ahead of the December 7 election.
Of the four affected seats, three belong to the NPP, and one to the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
The four MPs are Mr Peter Yaw Kwakye-Ackah, National Democratic Congress (NDC) MP for Amenfi Central, who is contesting the December 7 polls as an independent candidate and Mr Andrew Amoako Asiamah, an independent MP for Fomena, who is contesting on the ruling New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) ticket.
The rest are Madam Cynthia Mamle Morrison, NPP MP for Agona West, who is contesting as an independent candidate and Mr Kwadjo Asante, NPP MP for Suhum, who is also contesting as an independent candidate.
The Speaker’s declaration has left the New Patriotic NPP with 135 seats, while the National Democratic Congress (NDC) holds a slender lead with 136 seats.
