The matter Between Former President Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma (Appellant) and the State (Respondent) has been adjourned for ruling when notices is ready.
According to State Counsel Lawyer Robert B.Kowa Esq,in his oral Submittion he refused not to go into Section 148 (4) Interpretation of the Constitution of Sierra Leone because it an Accountability Provision and he further Opined that there is no Reason to Send this Matter to Supreme court Except if the Judges Desires.
State Counsel Lawyer Robert B.Kowa continue to argue that the court is Bound by the Most recent decision to give Judgment and cannot commit any matter to Supreme court without dive into it, because section 148(4) of Sierra Leone Constitution is Not a Vaccine to Protect one for the Next Ten years and beside this matter is not an adverse Finding.
Lawyer Joseph Fit-Gerald Kamara Esq, For Appellant said, Former President Doctor Ernest Bai Koroma is still Immune with section 148(4) of the Constitution of Sierra Leone the Immunization is still upon Doctor Ernest Bai Koroma (Appellant) because,all Executive decision he took whiles in in Office was for the Benefits and Development of Sierra Leone.
Lawyer Joseph Fit-Gerald Kamara Esq, continue to pinpoint that, this matter here at the Court of Appeal is for the Executive decision of Former President Doctor Ernest Bai Koroma took while he’s in office and Not to Interpret section 148(4) of the Republic of Sierra Leone.
And Lawyer Joseph Fit-Gerald Kamara Esq asked the Judges to Commit the Matter to Supreme Court for Interpretation citing Matter’s of Late Former President Ahmad Tejan Kabbah versus Firetex Company Sierra Leone Limited etal.
