Supreme court
As the Constitutional Court tables the 2016 presidential election petition bronght by the opposition UPND on Thursday, the Court has been called to rise to the occasion be magnanimous to defend the constitution.
The UPND has assembled a team of 12 constitutional lawyers to advance it’s case. A member of the team has informed Zambian Eye that the team is happy with evidence that has come so far.
A concerned Zambian and democrat says he is happy that so far the constitutional court has risen to the occasion once and defended the constitution in the two critical cases brought before it.
“We are proud that at least one arm of government upheld the constitution.
Now the world, Gods people And the citizenry are expecting them to consider the facts and facts alone to deliver the right verdict. If there is any doubt as to the veracity of the elections…then there is reasonable doubt. Then nullify or at worst call for the recount and verification of votes and ballots in the interest of being cost effective.”
