Amuli seeks leave on Sohe petition results

An application by Henry Amuli, seeking leave of the Supreme Court to review the National Court’s decision of 23 March which ordered a recount of the Sohe electorate, will be heard next month.

Amuli won the Sohe seat from Delilah Gore in the 2017 general elections.

Gore filed the petition disputing his win and was successful after a trial was conducted in Popondetta, Northern Province.

Justice Iova Geita ordered a recount to take place from May 21 with results to be presented to the Popondetta National Court.

Amuli is now seeking leave of the Supreme Court to review the decision of 23 March.

The application will be moved on 7 May.

Meantime, Gore’s lawyers intend to file an application to dismiss the leave application.
