The Court lacks jurisdiction to hear the application because the respondent is not a State Party to the Charter or Protocol and has not made the declaration under Article 34(6); the applicant therefore lacks standing. The Court also cannot compel the Commission to refer cases to it, as the institutions are complementary and independent.
