In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court dismissed a case filed by private legal practitioner, Justice Abdulai asking the court to review its March 9 judgement.
On March 9, 2022, in a unanimous decision, a seven-member panel of the Apex Court held that a Deputy Speaker of Parliament presiding over proceedings in the House has the right to vote on matters for determination, and also be counted as part of the quorum for decision-making.
Lawyer Abdulai after this ruling subsequently filed a review application insisting the ruling contained “errors of laws which have occasioned a grave miscarriage of justice on the people of Ghana”.
However, in a unanimous ruling, the nine-panel Court presided over by Justice Jones Dotse ruled that the Deputy Speaker of Parliament’s participation in voting was constitutional.

“The application is accordingly dismissed,” Justice Dotse said.
