The High Court has issued conservatory orders staying the operations and implementation of President William Ruto's proclamation on the establishment of a multi-agency team on the war against graft.  Judge Bahati Mwamuye issued the orders in a case filed by Nakuru Surgeon Dr Magare Gikenyi and three others.

Gikenyi, Eliud Karanja, Philemon Abuga and Dishon Keroti want the court to stop the team from compiling any report, giving recommendations or pushing for the implementation based on any report they have made.

Further, the four applicants have urged the court to bar the team members from fulfilling any of the duty, pursuant to the Presidential Multi-Agency team.

They want the court to issue strict priority-based timelines for hearing and determination of the application and petition.
