Concerns are increasing about the impact of a storm brewing within the corridors of justice, as the very foundation of the nation's Judiciary faces unprecedented attacks and counter-attacks.
What initially started as a battle against the leadership and the Supreme Court is morphing into a wider war against the Judiciary.
Questions are emerging about the impact on the dispensation of justice and the long-term effect on the integrity and trust in the institution.
The onslaught - which has targeted Chief Justice Martha Koome and the entire Supreme Court bench - has come in the form of multiple petitions to the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) and public attacks, sparking a constitutional and political debate over the independence of the judiciary.
