Abstract
The case in question involved an application by the defendant to dismiss the matter as statute-barred, citing the Limitation Act of 1939. The High Court, in deciding the matter made reference to the Supreme Court's holding in the case of Daniel Mwale v. Njolomo Mtonga, which reiterated that, the limitation period begins when there is a party capable of suing and another capable of being sued, and all material facts have occurred. The court also emphasized that the statute of limitation can be raised at any stage of proceedings.
