Former Law Society of Kenya (LSK) President Nelson Havi on Monday, January 13, filed a petition to the Judiciary Service Commission (JSC) calling for the removal of all seven Supreme Court judges.
In the petition, Havi urged the JSC to compel President William Ruto to form a tribunal and begin the process of firing the seven accusing them of gross misconduct and misbehaviour among other issues. "I swear this Affidavit in support of the complaint against Justices Martha Karambu Koome, Philomena Mbete Mwilu, Mohammed Khadar Ibrahim, (Dr) Smokin C Wanjala, Njoki Ndungu, Isaac Lenaola and William Ouko and ask that the Judicial Service Commission recommends to the President of the Republic of Kenya the formation of a Tribunal to remove the Judges from office," part of the affidavit read.
This development came just a day after Havi gave six of the judges a 24-hour deadline to back his call for the resignation of CJ Koome or face the same fate.
