In a sane democracy, Mr Chiloba, the electoral commission’s chief executive, would have since handed in his resignation letter. JUSTICEBut he has shamelessly chosen to cling onto his position and sit pretty, cheered on by the ruling Jubilee crowd. And in a Pilate court-type contrasting fortunes of the hero and the villain, it is Justice Maraga who is being subjected to insults in public. Mr Kenyatta set the tone the same day his victory was declared invalid, branding the Chief Justice and the other three judges ‘wakora’ (crooks). The Jubilee crowd has taken the cue and is shouting, “Give us Chiloba... Crucify Maraga”.
