Parliament resumed sitting on Tuesday, March 2, 2021, after a three-week closure.
The Speaker of Parliament, Mr Alban Bagbin, suspended activities of the House after 17 Members of Parliament (MPs) and over 150 staff tested positive for the virus.
Members and staff have been tested once again ahead of the resumption of activities in the house.
The SONA is a constitutional obligation as stipulated in Article 67 of the 1992 Constitution, which says: “the President shall, at the beginning of each session of Parliament and before a dissolution of Parliament, deliver to Parliament a message on the state of the nation.â€
