CHIEF JUSTICE IS ALSO THE HEAD OF A BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT.


CHIEF JUSTICE IS THE HEAD OF JUDICIARY.


In the principles of separation of power, The President is not the head of government. He is the head of state. He heads one arm of the government called executive. The chief justice is the head of Judiciary (not attorney general). He is the president of the supreme Court - the highest court of the land. Then there is the Speaker, who is the head of parliament.

Most of the times many have thought the attorney general heads the Judiciary but no. Attorney general's chief role is advising the president and parliament. He is an ex- officio member of parliament and also a member of the executive. He is part of the cabinet which forms the executive.

Parliament, both Senate and Legislative assembly are charged with making laws. The executive implement those laws and other functions while Judiciary reserves the decision as to who has violated aIntern the laws and interpretes the law and the extent and impacts of those transgressions.

From the Third angle projection, viewing the plan of the object of power separation when the term of the president and parliament expires, only the Chief Justice remains in power to swear in a new President.

So the people of Nyamira were blessed to have the President of the Supreme  court. They are entitled to stand by their son when a tirade of abuses, insults, threats and mockery is hurled at him by those aspiring to occupy seats in the executive. So Anti- Uhuruto demonstrations in Nyamira are justified.

One day the Jubilee brigade went to Nyamira to seduce the residents for votes. They bragged to the residents how they literally gave his Lordship David Maraga his current Job. It was such a desperate situation employing desperate measures. The president then went ahead to dish out some millions for Intergrated internally displaced people. Apparently it is purported the region endorsed President Kenyatta. My question is by threatening the Chief Justice, even though those threats are null and void, can we say the president mean well for the abagusii in Nyamira specifically?

It is so unfortunate the remarks coming from the Jubilee HONCHOS and which are ostensibly geared to erode public confidence in the Judiciary and perhaps set the ground mood for their removal through some machiavellian manner. Kenyans should pray because if those who are preaching peace also have anger as part of their doctrine, even if that anger is resulting from impunity, then we rest assured the country is plunging deadly into the abyss of division and ethnic hatred.

Those who can get on their knees like the Chief Justice, please pray for the nation because the signs of the times are not good at all. Despite making history we could be doing it for the wrong reasons. The judgment was impartial and based on evidence and facts but its becoming a hot potato for the executive to swallow as the days go by.

SUPREME COURT RULING

MY SUPREME COURT JUDGMENT I am not a lawyer and as such I am only qualified to render my layman’s submission to the court of public opinion, where one does not apply to be “amicus curiae.” In the court of public opinion everybody is both a lawyer and judge and so I can adduce my evidence confidently and make a ruling on my evidence. I want to usurp this opportunity to tell my one page judgment as Chief Justice David Maraga advised. The Chief Justice invited the public to read the Supreme Court judgment and subsequently make individual ruling.             Guys I tried to look at Chebukati trying by hook and crook to exonerate the commissioners from the mess and implicating the secretariat. Chebukati clarified they just assumed office a few months ago, coming into an old secretariat. Although the summary ruling of the Supreme Court judgment did not point out the culpability of the first and second respondents, my opinion is; ...

KAPENGURIA SEVEN

REST IN PEACE FALLEN KAPENGURIA SEVEN. My deepest condolences to the bereft families of seven slain gallant, patriotic officers in Kapenguria. This is an article I wrote on the daily nation last year April last year. I have just read it again and I can’t help being remorseful. Police officers go through a lot.   It is sad that by trying to uphold the law, they paid with their dear lives. The officers resolve to remand in custody a man suspected of links with Alshabaab terror group, led to their encounter with the brutal gun Burrell. It is completely ridiculous and preposterous to blame the police officers for their own death and to concoct somehow a political narrative out of this unfortunate occurrence.    Of course the police know better that apart from protecting the lives of the masses, their own security is paramount. Even within the disciplined police service. Such isolated cases of disgraceful acts from rouge police officers will always occur. Radicali...

WHY IEBC MUST NOT RENEGE ON THE 48,000 VOTERS.

WHY IEBC SHOULD NOT RENEGE ON ELECTION RULES. Wafula   Chebukati, must be the most troubled man, sitting on such a hot seat that is the IEBC chair. I am intrigued by his meeting with the presidential aspirants yesterday and how the contenders are pushing him over the cliff to waver on laid down rules concerning presidential nominations. I don’t find any reason why a country like Kenya should register such a huge number of aspirants for the post of president. It is preposterous and laughable for IEBC to waste resources including all these twenty aspirants in the ballot paper. Even if having such an astronomical number of aspirants does not affect the cost of the ballot paper, it will definitely create a huge impact on the final tally of the presidential votes.   It will lead to lots of spoilt votes. The vast list of contenders will lead to confusion especially on illiterate and semi illiterate voters who have nobody to help them vote their preferred candidate. There...
