Parliament recall unnecessary, waste of taxpayers’ money – Habib Iddrisu

Parliament is expected to reconvene from August 24 to 28, 2026, following Speaker Alban Bagbin’s recall of the House under Order 58(4) of the Standing Orders.

The decision by the Speaker of Parliament to recall the House from its recess has been criticised by the Deputy Minority Whip and Member of Parliament for Tolon, Habib Iddrisu, who believes the move could have been avoided.

He therefore argued that the nominees’ approval could have been considered when Parliament resumed normally rather than incurring the additional expenditure associated with recalling the House.
