"This lead is not definitive, because this lead is political and, therefore, it will deserve a political response, because it is not legal, and it is not legal, because an instance like the TC cannot afford to devalue and discredit the institutions of the State, "said Xavier Jaime, member of the installation committee of PRA JA Servir Angola.
Speaking to Lusa, the member of the installation commission of the Angola Renaissance Party - Together for Angola - Serving Angola (PRA-JA Servir Angola), recalled that 4300 signatures "recognized by the notary", now "discredited" by the body, were sent to the TC judicial.
"How does the Court come to discredit these signatures? So, do we have no Government? And therefore, PRA JA cannot, in any way, accept this and we will give a political answer too", he noted.
The Constitutional Court (TC) definitively rejected the bequest of the political project PRA-JA Servir Angola, led by Abel Chivukuvuku, for "not making up for shortcomings" and presenting "ambiguous allegations", referring to its possible legalization within four years.
The decision of the plenary of judges of the TC follows the most recent appeal with allegations presented by the installation commission of the Angola Renaissance Party - Together for Angola - Serving Angola (PRA-JA Servir Angola), in which it challenged the order of rejection of that instance , dated August 27, 2020.
According to Judgment No. 654/2020 of 1 December 2020, consulted on Monday by Lusa, the allegations about the rejection of an extraordinary appeal of unconstitutionality, brought in Judgment 632/2020, contain "several inaccuracies".
Xavier Jaime reiterates that PRA JA Servir Angola will not abide by the Constitutional decision, guaranteeing that "everything, within its reach, will be done in order to at least rescue a little credibility that the state structures establish".
"Why, if not, are we doing politics because? Allowing an instance like the Constitutional Court to do what it is doing?", He asked.
The official positioning of the party will be presented on Wednesday, during a press conference to be chaired by Abel Chivukuvuku, "where we will present our political response", he assured.
According to that instance, the appellant, with its appeal, "should make allegations in a clear and objective manner, and conclude, in a concise manner, by indicating the reasons why it seeks the annulment of the contested decision".
The plenary of the TC says that it found that "in addition to the non-compliance with the legally established deadline (15 days after the deadline and without any justification)", PRA JA joined required claims "without the expected improvement, suffering them with a certain clarity, objectivity and higher specification ".
"Thus, this Court does not fail to consider that the vast majority of the allegations presented cannot be taken advantage of, on the one hand, due to an excess of ambiguity in the way it presented its arguments, and on the other, due to the fact that they respect other decisions" , points out the organ.
Regarding the alleged lack of clarity and excess of ambiguity in his allegations, the politician stated that these aspects "are missing" at the level of the Constitutional Court for "devaluing signatures recognized by notary offices".
"The registry offices recognized the signatures and does the Constitutional Court say no? This is not a subversion of a state that intends to be a little organized", he questioned.
Asked about the prospect of legalizing the political project after four years, as noted by the TC, Xavier Jaime stated: "PRA JA already exists and will make its existence felt".
The Constitutional Court also recalls that the judgments of its plenary session "are not ancillary decisions", but of "mandatory compliance, of a definitive nature and of general imperative force", under the terms of paragraph 02 of article 177 of the Constitution.
