By Dr Willy Mutunga, Chief Justice
Our Constitution commands me to stand before you today, to report what I have done in the past year, and I am only too happy to oblige. As one of the three State organs, the Judiciary is bound by the national values and principles in Article 10 of the Constitution. Further, Section 5 (2) (b) of the Judicial Service Act, 2011, requires the Chief Justice to give an annual report to the nation on the State of the Judiciary and the Administration of Justice. This is the inaugural State of the Judiciary Report. It takes stock of our achievements in the past year and discusses the challenges in delivering on this institution’s constitutional and statutory mandate. It is the Report I want to present, again on the eve of an iconic day, Mashujaa Day, a day that demonstrates that the struggle to liberate a country or an institution is not without peril but the challenge must be borne with cowardice or hesitation.
