Parliament has written to the Electoral Commission (EC) declaring the Assin North seat vacant.
According to sources, the Clerk of Parliament, Cyril Kwabena Oteng Nsiah wrote to the EC on Monday, May 29.
Per the sources, the letter was based on the recent ruling and orders of the Supreme Court. This vacancy will require a by-election.
The apex court ordered Parliament to expunge James Gyakye Quayson’s name from its records after it concluded that he failed to renounce his Canadian citizenship at the time of filing his nomination forms to contest the polls.
