Justice Said Chitembwe at the Supreme court building when he was interviewed for the position of Judge of the Supreme court on Monday, May 03, 2021. [Collins Kweyu, StandardThe Judicial Service Commission (JSC) began the search for a new Supreme Court judge, with Justice Said Chitembwe being the first candidate to face the panel. The judge said corruption in Judiciary starts when cases delay, and clearing any case filed at the Supreme Court within a reasonable time with good reasoning helps. The High Court judge said he was not looking for a job, since he is already employed by the Judiciary, but an opportunity to serve the people. Asked of decisions by Supreme Court he disagreed with, Chitembwe cited nullification of the presidential election in 2017 and upholding the election of Wajir governor despite concerns raised.
