This week, the Chief Justice (CJ) accused the President of violating the Constitution by refusing to appoint 41 judges and disobeying several court orders. In response, the Attorney General (AG) accused the CJ of getting personal and doubled down by stating that the President would not appoint judges who are of questionable character.
It is worth noting that the Executive has increasingly displayed a penchant for disregarding court orders. Senior government officials have failed to enforce or honour court orders and instead publicly challenged the validity and legitimacy of the orders or the motives of the judicial officers who rendered them.
