I believe every sane Kenyan has seen or heard about the battle between the Chief Justice David Maraga led Judiciary and the Head of State’s Executive under President Uhuru Kenyatta. In between these two presidents sits the Office of Attorney General under Kihara Kariuki.
AG’s office has been on the receiving front for allegedly misadvising the Head of State. No one is above the law- perhaps God- who does not live on Earth. Don’t ask me where he lives!
LSK President Nelson Havi had also threatened to deregister AG Kihara Kariuki from its list of Kenyan legal fraternity.
Theodore Roosevelt Jr, the 26th President of USA said that OBEDIENCE OF THE LAW IS DEMANDED; NOT ASKED FOR AS A FAVOUR. Isn’t that what CJ Maraga is demanding?
Kihara Kariuki,
Paul Kihara Kariuki is a Kenyan lawyer and a former Court of Appeal President and judge. He was nominated for the post of Office of Attorney General of Kenya by President Uhuru Kenyatta on 13 February 2018 following the resignation of Githu Muigai.
As Mutemi Wa Kiama put it, Kenya is under the grip of the home guards & their scions. This is why if that, I don’t know-how, passed you. AG Kihara Kariuki is Uhuru’s cousin by marriage. His mother is Lilian Wairimu Koinange sister to the Late Koinange.
The Chief Editor of this site always tells his audiences to live free and fearless. We must know our true history. Ignorance, Poverty, and diseases knows no tribe. We can’t allow these Political wankers to sell the narrative of tribalism to the poor as Kenya’s problem.
The following tweet thread explains why AG Kihara Kariuki will forever be Uhuru’s Puppet. The tweets were compiled by a Kenyan Historian and Blogger named @LAGALESS;
In the heat of the defeat at the Supreme court when his election was nullified on 1st September 2017, Uhuru vowed to ‘revisit the judiciary”.
That nullification wasn’t the greatest threat, Raila Odinga’s refusal to run in the repeat October 26th election was the real crux.

According to the law, IEBC was supposed to advertise, competitively recruit and gazette the names of all the 290 returning officers and their deputies. They had not and it was illegal. It was a headache to Jubilee, it was also on October 24th 2017, a day before the…

The Blogger also rekindled our memories when then Court of Appeal President Judge Kihara Kariuki, constituted a panel of three judges, purportedly after receiving an ex-parte application for stay from Uhuru Kenyatta’s lawyer after 5 p.m. on Oct 24th.

Most of you remember that that order, obviously illegal (beyond court hours), done by Court of Appeal was presented to the Supreme Court registry by 8 a.m. in the morning. I mean drafted, extracted, signed, sealed and duly served.

That 25th October 2017 when the Supreme Court were supposed to hear the postponement of the sham October 26th exercise, Supreme Court Judges gave excuses for not attending the session.
Remember, only Chief Justice Maraga and Justice Lenaola came for the hearing, which collapsed because of the following reasons.
