Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu and Senior Counsel Philip Murgor (inset) at the Supreme Court on Friday, April 16, 2021. Acting Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu and Senior Counsel Philip Murgor, a lawyer who once served as public prosecutor, differed over his position that there was a vacuum in the office of the Chief Justice since the departure of former CJ David Maraga. I am not saying the acting Chief Justice is not doing her best. I am saying it is not the same as having a Chief Justice, because the Chief Justice is ultimately responsible; anyone in acting capacity is really acting on temporary time. There are not concerned or dealing with your performance as acting chief justice.
