Holding
The application is dismissed as the applicants have not proved the nugatory aspect of the application and there is no basis for staying the judgment.
Facts
The Kenya National Commission for UNESCO and Dr. Evangeline Njoka filed an appeal against the trial court's judgment, but the respondents initiated the removal of the 2nd applicant from office, which they claim will adversely affect the operations of the 1st applicant.
Issues
- Whether the execution of the judgment will adversely affect the operations of the 1st applicant
- Whether the removal of the 2nd applicant from office before the end of her term will stall the activities of the Board
- Whether the intended appeal is arguable and has high chances of success
- Whether the execution of the judgment will halt the operations of the 1st applicant thereby subjecting the applicants to irreparable damages
Reasoning
The applicants failed to prove the nugatory aspect of the application. The trial court's judgment saved the actions of the 2nd applicant, left the 1st applicant's Board quorate, and the 2nd applicant's term has since come to an end.
Outcome
Application dismissed
