Chief Justice Martha Koome has expressed concern that corruption is re-emerging in the Judiciary, and is undermining public confidence.
Justice Koome noted that several cases of corruption involving staff have been reported to her office and warned that this behaviour will not be tolerated, emphasizing that appropriate action will be taken.
To tackle this issue, she announced the formation of an integrity committee in all courts, which will include officers from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC), to address this emerging problem.
She was speaking during this year's magistrates and kadhis colloquium in Naivasha. The theme of the meeting was digital transformation, technology, and the law.
