The Court of Appeal has issued an order suspending all election activities related to Local Government Bodies against which petitions have been filed over the rejection of nominations.
Accordingly, the Court of Appeal has suspended election activities for the said Local Government Bodies until tomorrow, 02 April 2025.
It is reported that the court order has been issued after taking up for consideration multiple petitions that have been filed by candidates and independent groups on the rejection of nominations.
In December last year, the Cabinet of Ministers granted approval to amend the Local Government Act to allow fresh nominations to be called for the Local Government Election.
However, the decision was challenged in court.
