Why would you have such words for Okiya Omtatah?

I think he has gotten carried away with these court proceedings to a point where he could end up hurting his own interests. I am thinking he wants corruption to be tackled.

Then you don't understand Omtatah.
He is about the Rule of Law. He doesn't see how one can fight corruption by corrupt means. If you are going to fight corruption then avoid collective punishment (of Procurement officers); Specialized treatment by singling out some people on no foundation and above all constitutional presumption of innocence. Uhuru and Ruto benefitted from that when most people in the world were sure they were war criminals.
Omtatah has listed the legal stumbling blocks he feels Uhuru tried to fly over. There is the question of Kinyua firing civil servants via a circular. This matter was years ago subject to long litigation between Moi and some policeman (Muriithi). The 2010 Constitution sought to address it by making it clear that civil servants did not work for the person of President or stayed in office at his pleasure. The Public Service Commission was set up and given a mandate.
There is the due process again established by the constitution. Whichever way you look at it, Uhuru is trying to play games while at the same time pretending to have power he clearly lacks.

I am all for the rule of law. When that day comes, that should be supported. I am convinced, Kenya is decades away from the rule of law. So my attitude is if they can abuse power for some good, that is better than what they have been doing anyway.

That’s been my attitude lately including on democracy.
