ACHPR African Commission on Human Rights our " Human and Peoples' RilJhts Collective Responsibility was gotten from the media, but whether the information is correct' and whether the complainant tried to verify the truth" 35 This interpretation from Jawara was adopted with approval in Ahmed Ismael and 528 Others v. the Arab Republic of Egypt. 36 In the present Communication, the Complainant has presented evidence in the form of the letter reversing her translation; the letter seeking recovery of salaries paid to her as Professional Nurse; court documents as well as her payment records. The Commission is of the opinion that the Complainant has not relied exclusively on news disseminated through the mass media and thus this communication satisfies the provision of Article 56( 4) of the Charter. Article 56[5] of the Charter 50.Article 56(5) of the Charter states that "Communications ·re·lating to human and Peoples' Rights .. . shall be considered if they are sent after exhausting tocal remedies, if any, unless it is obvious that this procedure is unduly prolonged." The Commission requires exhaustion of local remedies where they are 'available, effective and sufficient to redress the alleged violation.' 37 An available remedy is one where 'the petitioner can pursue it without impediment'. 38 An effective remedy will be one that 'offers a prospect of success. '39A remedy will be sufficient'if it is capable of redressing the complaint.' 40 51. The Commission recalls that an effective remedy will be one that 'offers a prospect of success', 41 and 'upon success, the appropriate relief is one that is capable of adequately and timely redressingthe specific violation suffered'. 42 It should also be noted that a prospect of success of a remedy need not be 'certainty or guarantee of a favourable outcome for the complainant' but simply an assurance of full and fair examination of the legal issues and arguments. 43 In determining the propensity of a remedy.to ·Offer real prospects of success the Commission will assess the nature of the complaint; the 'general legal and political context' of the remedies, and the complain~nt's personal circumstances.44 52. The Complainant argues that they exhausted local remedies when they approached the Constitutional Court which is the highest Court in the Respondent State.
