It doesn't have to "enforce"its decision (that's not the court's job), when a higher court acts on the case that is the law. Everybody is supposed to obey the law.

In most legal systems, appellate courts have the power to review court decisions. This process allows higher courts to evaluate the rulings of lower courts for errors in law or procedure. In some jurisdictions, supreme courts have the ultimate authority to review and overturn decisions made by lower appellate courts. Additionally, certain administrative bodies may also have the authority to review specific types of decisions within their jurisdiction.

In Tanzania, the hierarchy of precedent is structured primarily around the court system. At the top is the Supreme Court, whose decisions are binding on all lower courts. Below the Supreme Court are the Court of Appeal and High Court, which provide binding precedents for subordinate courts.
