In a recent statement underscoring the significance of constitutional adherence, attention has been drawn to the vacancy of the Deputy President's office. According to the Constitution, every citizen has an obligation to respect, uphold, and defend the legislative framework that governs the nation. This vital responsibility demands that no public office, especially one as critical as the Deputy President, should remain unfilled for an extended period. The urgency of this matter is further emphasized by Article 165(3)(d)(ii) of the Constitution, which empowers the High Court to rule on the legality of actions purportedly sanctioned under the Constitution or any legislation. It posits that any inconsistency or infringement of the Constitution must be evaluated by the judiciary, thereby ensuring checks and balances are maintained within the government. In essence, the struggle to maintain constitutional order parallels a household where each member must play their part to keep the peace and coherence of the environment. If one position is neglected, it disrupts the equilibrium required for effective governance and function. Hence, the call for urgent action to fill the Deputy President's post is of paramount importance to uphold public interest and constitutional rule.
