Rwanda’s Supreme Court today accepted to adjourn the Democratic Green Party of Rwanda’s case against the change of the constitution to 29th July 2015, after the lawyer failed to turn up.
DGPR has had challenges in getting legal representation in Court as most of the lawyers contacted gave different reasons for not taking on the case. Some cited fear, personal reasons and unanimous threats, as reasons preventing them to take on the case.
The Democratic Green Party of Rwanda has today, the 3rd of June 2015, filed a lawsuit to the Supreme Court, demanding the Court to Block Parliament from any future plans of changing the constitution, specifically, regarding the lifting of presidential term limits from the Constitution.
Article 101 of the constitution stipulates that:
‘The President of the Republic is elected for a term of seven years renewable only once.

Au moment où l’on assiste à des remous politiques en Afrique suite à des révolutions et à des élections dont des fois les résultats ne font pas l’unanimité de la population, les politologues et les politiciens se prononcent sur le type de pouvoir qui éviterait le désordre dans la société. Le président du Democratic Party of Rwanda, le Parti des Verts, M. Frank Habineza, parle sans gueule de bois de la conception de son parti sur le projet de société et l’alternance politique qui assurent la paix durable dans chaque pays.
Kigali, 18 Mai (ARI) - Le Parti Démocratique Vert du Rwanda connu sous le nom de Green Party a déposé au Parlement rwandais sa pétition contre l'amendement de la constitution rwandaise qui limite les mandats présidentiels à deux.
Green Party indique dans un communiqué qu’il «ne soutient aucun changement dans la constitution en ce qui concerne la levée de la limitation des mandats présidentiels ».
Au contraire, le parti exige que la durée de sept ans soit réduite à quatre ou cinq ans et que la limite de deux mandats soit maintenue .
