Ghanaian Parliament increases security due to legal dispute over four parliamentary seats.

Ahead of its sitting on October 22, 2024, the Ghanaian Parliament has heightened security due to a legal dispute over the status of four parliamentary seats. New measures include thorough screenings for MPs, staff, and press, a ban on bodyguards, restricted vehicle access, and designated drop-off zones. Public access to the gallery is currently suspended. The Supreme Court has temporarily stayed the Speaker's declaration of the seats as vacant pending further legal review.
