The Standard e-Paper
Kenya’s Boldest Voice
The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper
print operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key
influence in matters of national and international interest.
The decision by Supreme Court to dismiss Deputy Chief Justice Kalpana Rawal and Justice Philip Tunoi appeal case concerning their retirement age is laudable. This is the social justice we need in our public offices especially the judiciary.
The two have been battling with the retirement age issues at the corridors of Justice without success as the Court of Appeal dismissed their case. For one, Kenya has a lot of qualified judges who can take up their positions without any haste. Kenya is not a graveyard of beautiful constitution. We have constitution in place that should be implemented when necessary. I find it more archaic to have cases that relate to matters outlawed by the 2010 constitution.
