Wamunyinyi Settles Things With Wetangula In Court Siting Mischief Of The Leader
Jun 29, 2020
A High Court is today expected to pronounce itself on two issues that will determine the fate of the contested leadership of Ford Kenya party. This is after a faction led by Kanduyi MP Wafula Wamunyinyi petitioned the court arguing that Bungoma Senator Moses Wetangula had filed a case in a wrong court without exhausting the provisions of the Political Parties Dispute Tribunal. In a constitutional petition filed at the High Court, the Wamunyinyi-led faction cited Political Parties Act which categorised High Court as an appellate court in matters political parties conflict. Section 41(2) of the Political Parties Act states that "An Appeal shall lie from the decision of the Tribunal to the High Court on points of law and facts and on points of law to both the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court.Through Rachier and Amollo Advocates, Wamunyinyi wants the court to rule whether it has jurisdiction to hear such a case for the first instance before the dispute is heard and determined at the Political Parties Dispute Tribunal (PPDT). "This Honourable Court issued interim conservatory orders on or about 15th June 2020 pursuant to an application by the petitioner.
