Lawyers Vow to Initiate Impeachment Motion Against Uhuru
The Law Society of Kenya (LSK) has threatened to initiate a motion of impeachment against President Kenyatta.
LSK president Nelson Havi told reporters on Monday that the society will petition the National Assembly and Senate to remove Kenyatta from office through impeachment on the grounds of gross violation of the constitution.
“It has become the order of the day for the government to disobey court orders in manner to suggest the Constitution is an inconvenience to them,” Havi noted.
He further claimed that there is a plot to have the Executive arm of the government control the Judiciary.
“We have all witnessed actions aimed at weakening these institutions and if the two houses are unable to impeach the President then Kenyans have a responsibility to hold their leaders to account,” added Havi.
Havi spoke hours after Chief Justice David Maraga called out President Uhuru for disregarding court orders and failing to appoint 41 judges recommended to him by the Judicial Service Commission (JSC).
Uhuru's actions have prevented the Judiciary from carrying its mandate effectively, according to Maraga.
“The refusal of the President to appoint the 41 judges, was a grave violation of the constitution,” Maraga stated.
“I have for a long time now unsuccessfully sought an appointment to discuss this issue with you [Uhuru], leaving me no choice but to raise the matter through this public statement; you swore to defend and uphold the constitution and the laws of Kenya,” he said adding that Uhuru's refusal to obey court orders is a recipe for anarchy.
“The President’s disregard of court orders, doesn’t board well for our constitutional democracy and is potentially a recipe for anarchy; the Executive routinely disregards court orders."

The most corrupt lawyers and judges in the history of Kenya! They want to put thieves in charge of the courts so they can continue stealing.
These morons could care less about the common people. They are in it for themselves. DP Ruto have saturated the courts with corruption, bribes and he shares the money stolen from our coffers with the judiciary. Kenyans are tired of thieves in the judiciary. It is an arm of the government that we don’t need!
Mr. President, do not bulge to any calculated pressure from the most useless judiciary in the world! No new appointments for more thieves!

Which court orders? The judges violate our constitution daily by stealing from the people.
Do the people really care about judicial court orders aimed at taking more of the tax payers money?
16,000 pending cases can be resolved in about 4-5 months! You can’t tell us the 31 judges are that lazy. These gluttons can do better for heaven’s sake.
Maraga is the poorest manager of anything to say the least! How did he become the CJ of Kenya?

If Maraga failed in 2017 when he canceled the election which cost Kenyan billions of shillings, what makes the judiciary think Uhuru will be impeached? Stop chest thumping Maraga! You are looking more stupid by the day!
