"content": "(1) Unless disqualified under clause (2), a person is eligible for election as a Member of Parliament if the person- (a) is a registered voter; (b) satisfies any educational, moral and ethical requirements prescribed by this Constitution or by an Act of Parliament; and, (c) Is nominated by a political party, or is an independent candidate who is supported…” The reference to the Article of the Constitution that they purport to quote for this particular judgement does not say that. Therefore, the question we are asking ourselves is whether the Judiciary should interpret the law or make the law. By quoting an Article of the Constitution that is completely unrelated to that particular judgement, is an attempt to make a law - something which they should not do. Their work should be to interpret. That is my submission, Hon. Speaker."
