They ruled that Deputy Chief Justice followed the constitution in constituting the bench. This decision was protested by attorneys attached to Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua. Well, justice Ogolla has issued a warning on what is happening.
Justice Ogolla has said that no more games in his court and people will not be allowed to take the court In circles on the important matter. He has asked the defence team representing Gachagua to be more organized and focus on the issues at hand.
This is coming just a day after the bench which he is leading was asked by the Gachagua defence team to rescue itself. The defence lawyers had submitted that Deputy Chief Justice does not have power to constitute a bench when Chief Justice is around.
However, after deliberation, judges declared they were legally constituted hence able to proceed. Something that angered those allied to Gachagua.
