Holding

The Tribunal dismisses the applicant's appeal and orders the dismissal of the Notice of Motion Application.

Facts

The applicant, John Nyamete Momanyi, resigned from the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) and joined the People's Democratic Party (PDP). However, his name was still on the ballot papers for ODM nominations, leading to his nomination and subsequent election.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant was properly served with the court pleadings and orders
  2. Whether the applicant was a member of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) at the time of the nominations

Reasoning

The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to provide evidence of proper service of his resignation letter and membership confirmation, and that the nomination certificate was not dated.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed

Orders

  • Notice of Motion Application dismissed
  • No orders as to costs
