A Retired Justice of the Supreme Court William Atuguba has said that the Supreme Court should not have sat on the vacant seat case. He said the case was a matter for the High Court to determine. "The Supreme Court had no business hearing this case.
I am also worried that political partisanship is what we are doing now, "William Atuguba, said on the Key Points on TV3 Saturday, November 16.
He added "Common sense should have shown that the right forum for dissemination of election disputes is the High Court and not the Supreme Court.
The law is very clear on it." On Tuesday, November 12, the Supreme Court by a 5-2 majority decision upheld the suit filed by Alexander Afenyo-Markin.
