By Farai D Hove| The same Chief Justice Luke Malaba who passed a defective ruling against MDC leader, Nelson Chamisa at the constitutional court in August (declaring he believes in “facts” rather than figures), has announced saying he expects robust criticism of court  judgements.

Speaking at  the launching of the University of Zimbabwe Law Journal held at the University of Zimbabwe on Friday, Justice Malaba said, “We expect robust criticism. We expect tearing apart of these decisions.

“If you cannot, please don’t attempt. We don’t expect articles which are published because the writer expects to be quoted in a judgment.

“We are not there for that purpose. If the standard of the article is so high and that it ceases to be just an opinion, certainly it is our duty as a court to cite that article with pride.”
