Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant, a political party called Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC), sought a provisional order interdicting the first respondent from recalling its elected members from Parliament and local authorities. The first respondent claimed to be the interim Secretary General of CCC and had issued recall letters. The applicant disputed his authority and had already instituted main proceedings in HC 6872/23.
