The Supreme Court has, by a unanimous decision, dismissed a case brought against the Electoral Commission (EC) challenging the constitutionality of its move to create 45 new constituencies.

He therefore asked the Court to prevent the EC from including the new constituencies' races on the 2012 ballot.
However, the Judges were of the view that his position was misconceived.
