A good judicial officer understands that the law however progressive can never be far removed from politics. Our activist judges are pretenders and are unwilling to confront issues that could backfire on then. Issues like abortion, issues like poligamy. Our activist judges would rather be caught fighting the government than be confronting the social ills that's the poor interpretation of the law.
And again we say the constitution
IS NOT A LIST OF SUGGESTIONS it`s there to protect Ciku from excesses from the Executive. What`s so hard to understand that? You want to move KMC to the military, ask Ciku. You want to amend the Constitution involve Ciku. And a good judicial officer swore to uphold the constitution
I, ........................, (The Chief Justice /President of the Supreme Court, a judge of the Supreme Court, a judge of the Court of Appeal, a judge of the High Court) do (swear in the name of the Almighty God)/(solemnly affirm) to diligently serve the people and the Republic of Kenya and to
impartially do Justice in accordance with this
Constitution as by
law established, and the
laws and customs of the Republic, without any
fear, favour, bias, affection, ill-will, prejudice or any political, religious or other influence. In the exercise of the judicial functions entrusted to me, I will at all times, and to the best of my knowledge and ability,
protect, administer and defend this Constitution with a view to upholding the dignity and the respect for the judiciary and the judicial system of Kenya and promoting fairness, independence, competence and integrity within it. (So help me God.)
Priss gavament people
