The Supreme Court of Kenya was established under Article 163 of the Constitution as the apex court. What we have is a Supreme Court that was compromised by personal issues and overblown egos. For the sake of justice and this nation's cohesion, let the whole Supreme Court be reconstituted.

The High Court and the Court of Appeal have held that the retirement age is strictly 70 years as per the Constitution.
