rajabu mussa vs rahma selemani 1998 tzhc 2027 6 august 1998

The appeal lacks merit as the evidence and law establish two separate written agreements for the sale of a motor vehicle and a house, which cannot be varied by alleged oral agreements. The appellant voluntarily signed the documents after explanation by advocates, and the adequacy of consideration is not a ground for voiding the contract absent fraud or duress, which was not proved.
