Applicants have failed to demonstrate how these guarantees of equality were not applied to them therefore resulting in the alleged violations. The Respondent also reiterates that Section 9(1) of the Basic Rights and Duties Enforcement Act [Cap 3 RE 2002] also provides adequate safeguards against the alleged violation. iii) The Court's Assessment 149. Article 3 of the African Charter provides that: "Every individual shall be equal before the law. Every individual shall be entitled to equal protection of the law" 150. This provision has two limbs, namely, the right to equality before the law and the right to equal protection of the law. 151. With regard to the right to equal protection of the law, the Court notes that this is recognized and guaranteed in the Constitution of the Respondent. The relevant provisions (Articles 12 and 13) of the Constitution enshrine the right in its sacred form and content on equal par with the Charter, including by prohibiting discrimination. 152. Concerning the right to equality before the law, in their submissions, the Applicants have alleged that their right under Article 3 of the Charter has been violated by the Respondent without specifying how and under what contexts that they have been discriminated against. The Court has, in the case of Abubakari v Tanzania, held that "it is incumbent on the Party purporting to have been a victim of discriminatory treatment to provide proof thereof'.36The Applicants have not indicated circumstances where they were subjected to unjustified differential treatment in comparison to other persons in a similar situation. 37 As this Court has stated in its case law of Alex Thomas v Tanzania, "General statements to the effect that [a] right has been violated are not enough. More substantiation is required. 38n 36Abubakari Case, para. 153 37 Ibid, para. 154 36 Alex Thomas Case, paragraph 140 39
