President William Ruto fired the first warning against Executive impunity yesterday, vowing to lead from the front in upholding the rule of law.

The swearing-in of six judges rejected by his predecessor, President Uhuru Kenyatta, was staged to underscore a break with the past, with former Chief Justice David Maraga, who oversaw their recruitment, in attendance.

After waiting in the cold for three years, justices Weldon Korir, Aggrey Muchelule, Joel Ngugi and George Odunga finally took an oath to formally ascend to the Court of Appeal, while Evans Makori and Elizabeth Omange quit the magistracy to become judges of the Environment and Lands Court.
