Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Clerk to Parliament Ebenezer Ahumah Djietror has assured Ghanaians of a smooth and orderly transition as the 8th Parliament prepares for its dissolution on January 6, 2025, and the 9th Parliament is inaugurated the following day.

Speaking at a press briefing, the Clerk emphasized the importance of this transition as a reaffirmation of Ghana’s democratic values and constitutional principles.

The transition, mandated under Articles 112(4) and 113(1) of the 1992 Constitution and Standing Order 51 of Parliament, is being meticulously planned by a committee established by the Speaker of Parliament in consultation with the House’s leadership.

A dedicated technical team from the Parliamentary Service is supporting the committee to ensure the process adheres to constitutional and procedural standards.

“This transition is not merely a procedural change but a reaffirmation of the values and aspirations that unite us as a nation,” the Clerk remarked. “It offers an opportunity for reflection, renewal, and recommitment to the principles of governance enshrined in our Constitution.”

A Legacy of Democratic Excellence
The Clerk highlighted Ghana’s successful navigation of eight parliamentary transitions in the Fourth Republic, describing it as a testament to the nation’s resilience and commitment to democratic ideals. “We have remained a beacon of peace and a shining example of democratic governance. This forthcoming transition is yet another milestone in this proud tradition,” the Clerk noted.

Key Events in the Transition
The Clerk outlined the key events planned for the transition period:

  1. Registration of Members of Parliament-Elect
    • Date: January 2–5, 2025
    • Time: 10:00 AM
    • Venue: Visitors’ Centre
  2. Message on the State of the Nation
    • Date: January 3, 2025
    • Time: 10:00 AM
    • Venue: Chamber
  3. Dissolution of the 8th Parliament
    • Date: January 6, 2025
    • Time: 10:00 AM
    • Venue: Chamber
  4. Election of Speaker, Deputy Speakers, and Swearing-In of MPs-Elect
    • Date: January 6, 2025
    • Time: 11:00 PM
    • Venue: Chamber
  5. Swearing-In of President-Elect
    • Date: January 7, 2025
    • Time: 10:00 AM
    • Venue: Independence Square

Call for Media Support
The Clerk commended the media for their role as a vital bridge between Parliament and the public, urging them to continue promoting understanding and unity through their reporting during the transition. “Your role in shaping public discourse and disseminating accurate information cannot be overstated,” the Clerk stated.

Strengthening Democracy
The Clerk emphasized the importance of inclusivity, transparency, and national unity in this period of transition, calling on all stakeholders to approach it with a spirit of collaboration. Parliament, the Clerk affirmed, is committed to fostering accountability, enhancing legislative processes, and promoting public engagement in governance.

In closing, the Clerk expressed gratitude to all partners and stakeholders for their contributions to Ghana’s democratic development. “Let us embrace this transition with a shared commitment to progress, accountability, and inclusive governance,” the Clerk concluded.

The press briefing reaffirmed Parliament’s dedication to ensuring a seamless transition that reflects the democratic values and aspirations of the Ghanaian people.
