Parliament has officially notified the Electoral Commission (EC) of a vacancy in the legislature following a High Court order for a rerun of the Kpandai Parliamentary Election. In a formal letter dated December, 4, 2025, the Clerk to Parliament, Ebenezer Ahumah Djietror, informed the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, Mrs. Jean Mensa, that the vacancy arose after the High Court in Tamale directed a rerun of the constituency’s parliamentary election. The ruling, delivered on 24 November 2025, was part of a case in which the Clerk to Parliament was named the 4th respondent, referenced as Suit Number NR/TL/HC/E13/22/25. Acting under Article 112(5) of the 1992 Constitution, the Clerk noted that the correspondence serves as the official notification required to trigger the processes for conducting a new election in the Kpandai constituency. The letter concludes with confirmation that the Electoral Commission has been duly notified as mandated by law
