The Constitution differs, also the Courts can't direct GECOM.

Read the CCJ judgement regarding GECOM.

Here is what the Constitution says.

""--- either generally or in a particular area, by danger or serious hardship ---""

The operative words of section 16 which refers to specific issues that may occur in particular area(s).

For the entire country, it has to an extremely serious matter that makes it impossible to conduct the election.

Of note ... it MAY be by consultation between the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition.

Operative is MAY ... meaning it possibly could happen.

It is not SHALL ... meaning it MUST happen.
