19881208 TZHC Dar es Salaam
The application is dismissed as time-barred because the applicant was not under any mistake regarding the consent order and could not rely on s.26(c) of the Law of Limitation Act. Even if in time, no sufficient grounds were established to vary the consent order, as there was no evidence of fraud, collusion, or misapprehension of material facts.
