Parliament resumes sittings today, Tuesday, May 27, 2025, marking the start of the Second Meeting of the First Session of the 9th Parliament. This follows a recess observed during the Easter period.
With the resumption, lawmakers return to full parliamentary business, including legislative debates, committee engagements, and deliberations on pressing national issues.
A major highlight of the upcoming session will be the expected appearance of the Minister for Finance in August to present the 2025 Mid-Year Budget Review to the House.
Speaking to Citi News, Second Deputy Majority Whip, Richard Acheampong, outlined the agenda for the sitting.
Ahead of today’s sitting, the Minority Caucus held a strategic retreat over the weekend to evaluate its performance and outline key priorities for the new session.
Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin reiterated the caucus’s commitment to strong parliamentary oversight while signaling its readiness to assume leadership in the next political cycle.
“We are sending a strong message to our opponents—we will hold their feet to the fire while remaining a responsible opposition. I assure Ghanaians that we are ready to take power in 2028,” he stated.
