On Monday, Justice Maraga claimed that he has unsuccessfully sought man audience with President Kenyatta to discuss the appointment of the judges. AdvertisementBut CJ Maraga said President Kenyatta has violated the Constitution by refusing to appoint the judges and violated two court orders to that effect. He added that the Attorney General had delayed prosecuting appeals against cases that ordered President Kenyatta to appoint the nominees. The AG says only Justice Maraga can answer how some of the individuals whose integrity is in question are still serving as judges. Meanwhile, the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) yesterday threw its weight behind Justice Maraga, faulting President Kenyatta for flouting court orders.
