Chief Justice Martha Koome has commended the Vihiga High Court Station, located in Vihiga County, for recording the lowest instances of case adjournments.
Koome, who spoke during the Annual High Court Leaders Conference in Mombasa on Thursday, April 17, said the court in Vihiga demonstrated that efficient justice was achievable through intentional leadership.
While addressing concerns raised by Kenyans about case backlogs and delayed judgments, Koome directed judicial officers to emulate the Vihiga High Court and act with urgency to reclaim the trust of Kenyans.
She noted that the responsibility for judicial reforms did not lie with her alone, but rather with each judge and registrar across the court system.
