CONSOLIDATED CIVIL APPEAL NOs 39 41 OF 2021 ABDALLAH SWALEHE RAMADHANI NDAUGA 9 OTHERS VS THE REGISTERED TRUSTEES OF TABATA MAGENGE MUSLIM COMMUNITY

The respondent, as a registered body corporate, had locus standi to sue. The election of trustees supervised and conducted by BAKWATA was null and void as it contravened the respondent's Constitution, which vests the power to elect trustees in the General Meeting of the Community. The trial court properly evaluated the evidence. However, in view of the relationship between the parties, the award of costs to the respondent was improper.
