The East African Court of Justice (EACJ) wants its sittings to be conducted throughout the year as opposed to the current four months annually in order to address all the arising issues effectively.
The EACJ registrar Yufnalis Okubo said the current sessions are not sufficient to effectively deal with all the cases brought before the court.
