It is quite amazing how we grab an “opportunity” regardless of the context, conditions or moral considerations embedded in that “opportunity”. I am talking about the 34 judges who recently took the oath of office following their appointment by President Uhuru Kenyatta. I don’t know much about the legalities of who is right or wrong in the rejection of the six judges. But what stands out in the accusations and counter-accusations between those who support the president’s axing of the six and those opposed to it is how fast the 34 judges grabbed the “opportunity” to take the oath. Based on those who want the six judges appointed, the whole group of 40 judges was entitled to the appointment.
