FINALLY GOOD NEWS TO PASTOR MACKENZIE

The High Court has temporarily barred the commission of inquiry into the Shakahola tragedy from commencing its sittings until a case filed by the Azimio La Umoja One Kenya coalition is determined.

Justice Lawrence Mugambi told the commission not to start their sittings until he gives fresh directions on Monday.

Azimio through lawyer paul mwangi has protested the formation of the commission saying President William Ruto defied the constitution and usurped powers of other state organs.

Azimio also took issue with the appointment of lady justice Jessie Lessit to head the commission saying the action will compromise the independence of the judge and that if cases touching the Executive came before her, she was likely to favour her appointing authority.
