Facts of the Case

Background

The appellant, Thomas Mapani, noted an appeal against a decision of the NEC Appeals Board. The respondent raised a preliminary objection arguing that ZIBAWU, which comprised part of the Appeals Board, could not appeal against its own decision. The court found that ZIBAWU was representing its member and the decision was that of the Board, not ZIBAWU itself.
