The pre-determined trajectory of the Constitutional Court’s proceedings left no room for illusion, but today’s ruling marks a definitive institutional collapse.
By rubber-stamping systemic violations to validate a deeply contested election, the Court has failed its core constitutional mandate. Instead of acting as an independent guarantor of the rule of law, the highest judicial body has completely liquidated its institutional integrity and public trust.
When judicial processes are weaponized to institutionalize electoral irregularities, it compromises the entire legal framework of the state. Political expediency has officially superseded constitutional law.
