Anne Sitali is a Zambian lawyer and former Constitutional Court judge. Quotes The first respondent’s nomination is valid and he is entitled to stand for election on August 12, 2021. Where the time for hearing a petition is limited, the court is bound. Our position therefore is, the petition stands dismissed for want of prosecution as at midnight. We are of the view that the respondents did not prove that the bribery and undue influence were perpetrated by the appellant and the appeal succeeds. "Provisions of the Constitution must be interpreted collectively not sequentially as to interpret them sequentially is not legally tenable." Constitutional Court of Zambia "When interpreting the Constitution, all the relevant provisions bearing on the subject for interpretation should be considered together as a whole in order to give effect to the objective of the Constitution." Constitutional Court of Zambia "The entire Constitution has to be read together as an integrated whole with no particular provision destroying the other but rather each sustaining the other." Constitutional Court of Zambia "No one provision of the Constitution is to be considered alone but that all the provisions bearing upon a particular subject are brought into view and to be interpreted so as to effectuate the greater purpose of the instrument."
