Lawyers launch do or die battle over key JSC slotLaw Society of Kenya President Allen Gichuhi addresses the media on the position of Law Society of Kenya (LSK) male representative to the Judicial Commission of Kenya (JSC) at his offices in Nairobi. “LSK representatives to JSC are there to ensure justice does not favour the mighty,” said Wako. For instance, the Supreme Court presided over by former CJ Willy Mutunga upheld the election of President Uhuru Kenyatta in 2013. And when Mutunga’s term ended, the JSC forwarded Maraga’s name to the President after he emerged top in the interviews. He was appointed CJ and presided over the court that nullified Uhuru’s election in the August 2017 poll.
