Nixon Nyikadzino v Zimbabwe 68. Article 56(2) of the African Charter provides that a Communication should be compatible with the Charter or the Constitutive Act of the African Union. With regards to this requirement, the Complainant is of the view that the Communication reveals a prima Jacie violation as it alleges a violation of Articles 1, 4, 5, 6 and 10 of the Charter. The Respondent State, on the other hand, argues that the allegations are made without giving any details as to how the articles are violated, and that the facts as presented do not show prima facie violations. Based on this premise the Respondent State concludes that the facts and issues in dispute do not fall within the rationae materiae jurisdiction of the Commission. 69. As the well-established jurisprudence of the African Commission provides prima facie violation of the provisions of the Charter is said to have occurred "when the facts presented in the Complaint show that a human rights violation has likely occurred" 19 . 70.

In Section four (paragraphs 4.1 to 4.6) of its submissions, the Complainant tries to show how the alleged acts of the Respondent State violate Articles 1, 4, 5, 6 and 10 of the Charter. Moreover, the Complainant has attached some documentary evidences to corroborate its allegations.20 71.
