At the time Parliament’s lawyers opposed an amended affidavit filed by Achmat. Now, in a letter to Parliament, #UniteBehind says Parliament’s lawyers are delaying judgment over minor technical issues: the commissioning advocate’s address and Zackie Achmat’s name change. Should Parliament’s lawyers continue with their opposition, the next available date for a hearing is only April 2027. While the matter was argued in August 2025 before a full bench of three judges, Parliament’s lawyers opposed the admission of the amended affidavit deposed to by #UniteBehind director Zackie Achmat. In the letter to Parliament, Achmat and Fokazi say that every President since 1994, has known Achmat as “Zackie Achmat”.
