The sitting government can decide to favor a given individual who they deem useful. Kibaki needed him to beef up the numbers in parliament. So the prison authorities developed very heavy feet in checking their records.
When they did, they said the names were different and just developed rare stupidity at knowing that he changed them.
When civil society got on his case, even the documents vanished as is tradition in our public service. The prison record remained intact (but bearing his alias which the mandarins feign knowledge of) but that would soon disappear when it got too hot or he paid the right price.
The ODPP therefore lacked "the evidence" to take action - not that it was ever his business in the first place. But then that is another tactic where straightforward cases are misdirected to instances that have nothing to to with it - all to draw time. An escaped prisoner is police and prison service business from start to finish. He only becomes the ODPP's problem when the prison opts to have him charged with the offence of escaping lawful custody. However there are a raft of measures by the prison to punish him, even extend his prison term (rarely used colonial provisions which they dust up and use at their own discretionary convenience)
Competitive politics emerged and his opponents got proactive and actively sought the documents. A warrant was found but it was quickly denied.
In short there was willful laziness, perhaps lethargy and a
deliberate show and pretence of action always resulting in seemingly "sincere" frustration.
It is the same thing we saw with the Waitiki Land - something I will neither forget nor forgive as long as I live! A gang of land thieves seized a man's land bought by his own sweat working in inhospitable dangerous situations rising to a high position and using his pension to buy the land! An honest man if there was ever one, driven by the best of ideals. He returns home and they turn him into a beggar! Mother fucking mandarins driven by hate and envy.
As long as the case is not heard and determined with a final binding judgment in her disfavor, she is going nowhere.
Plus unless she has a more than 6 months conviction anything less would require discretionary evaluation itself to be subjected to years of litigation. I can't see our parliament passing any specific laws to compliment the general parameters of the constitution. May be ten years from now some court will make a binding precedent setting ruling.
Ps.
I do not support Chapter 6. I think people should improve their collective morals and refuse to vote for such characters. We can't allow Kissinger like paternalistic thinking where some power or law decides for a people irresponsible enough to throw their own country to the dogs.
If that is the case then how is sonko able to get around that knowing he has done time several times and even escaped from prison.
