Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin (born 24 September 1957) is a Ghanaian politician who is the current Speaker of the Parliament of Ghana.

Whilst working at Okyeman Chambers, between 1989 and 1992, he was appointed as the external solicitor of the Nii Ngleshie royal family of James Town, Credit Unions Association of Ghana (CUA) and several other private business firms within Accra.

[16][17] He was also the Majority Leader of Parliament under President Mahama's tenure of office, he succeeded Benjamin Kunbuor, who was appointed as the Minister of Defense.

Analysts viewed his election as a shift in the balance of power within the legislature, potentially influencing parliamentary proceedings.

The decision effectively gave the opposition National Democratic Congress a majority in the legislature and prompted a legal challenge in the Supreme Court of Ghana from Alexander Kwamina Afenyo-Markin.
