On Saturday, July 5, Newsfile’s live broadcast featured in-depth discussions on the contentious Ablekuma North parliamentary rerun and the government’s newly launched 24-hour economy blueprint.
The programme brought together political analysts, civil society representatives, and economists to examine the implications of both developments.
On the political front, analysts explored the complexities surrounding the Ablekuma North rerun prompted by the Electoral Commission’s suspension of the collation process at three polling centres, and the ongoing legal battles and the decision to rerun polls for 19 polling stations.
The live panel also discussed whether a rerun is constitutionally and democratically sound, with some highlighting the danger of disenfranchising constituents if the matter is further delayed.
The second segment of the broadcast shifted focus to the 24‑hour economy initiative unveiled just a on Thursday, July 3.
Below is the livestream.
