Solicitor General Kennedy Ogeto has come out to clear the air regarding the legality of the Nairobi Metropolitan Service after reports the court had declared it was unconstitutional. “We wish to state for the record, that the said allegations are untrue,” Ogeto said in a statement on Friday. “By the said decision, the Court found that NMS was properly and lawfully established vide the Executive Order No. Wasilwa said the instrument that established NMS was exhibited in court, sealing any loophole. She declared NMS was an illegality but still suspended the same decision and gave parties in the case a window period of 90 days for the agency to be established in accordance with the law.
