Section 182: Constitution – freedom of thought and religion—The applicant sought

182. Constitution – freedom of thought and religion—The applicant sought an interlocutory injunction to prohibit the respondents from using loudspeakers during their prayer meetings. HELD the right of the citizen to freedom of thought and of religion, including his right to manifest and propagate his religion or belief in worship, teaching, practice, and observance, is no doubt a fundamental one duly protected by the Constitution. That fundamental right, however, has to be exercised in a civilised society in such a way as not to cause inconvenience to others. People have the undisputed right to pray but in so doing they should not cause inconvenience to those who have also an undisputed right not to pray. Aumeer v l’Assemblée de Dieu-Mission Salut. (1988).
