The judge said the matter was not urgent as the applicants
had waited “until it was too late”.
“On the facts placed before me, there was an undue delay
and laxity on the part of the applicants in bringing this application to court.
The factual circumstances giving rise to this urgent application were known to
the applicant and have been ongoing since at least October 16, 2023.”
“An applicant is expected to have acted with the same
urgency it wishes that the matter be accorded. The expectation is that, faced
with the alleged failure to respond from the first respondent and the
conflicting media reports, the applicant would have reacted immediately to
remedy the irreparable harm, rather than standing back and doing nothing until
it was too late.”
