James Gyakye Quayson has been officially sworn in as the Member of Parliament for Assin North after winning the by-election held on Tuesday, June 27.
This comes after the Supreme Court’s decision on May 17, which invalidated his previous election and barred him from assuming the role of an MP. However, Mr. Quayson managed to reclaim his seat in the subsequent election, paving the way for his swearing-in ceremony.
In a show of support, the former President, John Dramani Mahama, and the leadership of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) made an appearance at Parliament ahead of Mr. Quayson’s swearing-in ceremony, highlighting the importance of the occasion.
As preparations for the ceremony were underway, the Minority Members of Parliament were observed dressed in white attire, symbolizing the significance of the event.
The presence of the NDC flagbearer and party leadership emphasized the significance of the swearing-in ceremony and the mandate it represents for James Gyakye Quayson as the elected Member of Parliament for Assin North.
The by-election result reflected the support for Mr. Quayson, as he secured 57.56 percent of the total votes cast, totalling 17,245 votes.
