Bulaya’s case adjourned

Bunda Urban MP Ms Ester Bulaya.

What you need to know:

  • The case was pushed back to next Monday following excuses from petitioners and respondents, including Tundu Lissu whose mother in-law passed away last Saturday.

Musoma. The High Court, Mwanza Division has adjourned the election petition filed by four voters to challenge Bunda Urban MP’s victory during the 2015 General Election.

The case was pushed back to next Monday following excuses from petitioners and respondents, including Tundu Lissu whose mother in-law passed away last Saturday.

The second respondent’s lawyer, Mr Robert Kidandu, told the court here yesterday that Mr Lissu had to attend his in-law’s burial in Dar es Salaam later this week.

He also said that the Principal State Attorney, Ms Angela Lushagala, also had an excuse as her son was sick.

Due to that, judge Noel Chocha said the reasons given to the court were genuine and could not be avoided therefore he had to adjourn the session until next week
