nyarawa sebastian vs grumeti reserves 2020 tzhc 3281 30 october 2020

The application for condonation did not raise illegality as a ground before the CMA, and the reasons advanced (seeking a personal representative and attending to family needs) were not valid grounds for extension of time. The CMA cannot be faulted for not considering an issue not raised before it.
