Lady Justice Martha Koome leadership is under scrutiny after latest development from the courts. According to the petitioner, Chief Justice Koome should leave office with immediate effect.
The petitioner who is being represented by advocate Christopher Rosana has listed various grounds for her removal. One of the key reasons is her decision to ban Lawyer senior counsel Ahmednasir from appearing at supreme Court cases.
She also banned his associates in the law firm. They are prohibited from appearing in Supreme Court cases after Ahmednasir attacked her online.
The petitioner is claiming that. She was seated on the same bench with six other Supreme Court judges. This occurred in a case that involved her, which was against the law.
“She agreed with the rest of the bench to ban Ahmednasir in a case she’s involved in. This was a gross violation of office.” Quoted the petitioner.
She is also accused of embarrassing the judiciary over her actions that led to change of hierarchy. After the banning of Ahmednasir, they were sued at high court. The decision that has been cited as confusion since supreme Court decision should be final in legal hierarchy.
