We should have judges who know their law if they were knowledgeable, they would have known that the US Supreme Court in the case OF Barker and Carr in 1968 said that certain matters are by nature political matters within the domain of the legislature and the executive, those matters the Supreme Court should run away from them, they should not get entangled in those matters”.
