"Four commissioners from Mt Kenya reduced my scores yesterday afternoon after they were called by powerful people," Mr Ngatia told the Business Daily after the JSC announcement.

"Without that intervention, I was far ahead of all the other candidates," he added without giving details on the scores and venue of the meeting.

Ngatia is simply too brilliant and independent for CJ. Like Nzamba Kitonga. You write as if you are a stranger in Jerusalem.

Ngatia is great lawyer to defend dynasty - BAD for powerful tenured  CJ.

I think his independence and ethics is the problem.
This guy who recently went and did a master in Ethics at Strathmore.
He is also very religiously catholic - Opus dei type like Njoroge at CBK.
The dynasties fear such people - brilliant, independent, ethical.

He was going to be another Maraga...or Magara...the SDA adherent...impossible to control

If ICC was African likes of Karim Khan would be DOA. You only want these brilliant folks on your side not judging you.

Ngatia is a litigator, not a judge.  I think those require different sets of skills.

Funny how GEMA rigged out non-gema in all judiciary and start mind games how Ngatia gema has been sidelined.

[Kadudu]

They will also start crying when their Njoki Ndungu does not get DCJ.

@Termie, I hazard reasoning that way, you are on a slippery slope. Your logic seems to say that Karim Khan having pursued a life-long career as a defence counsel has no business being ICC Prosecutor??

[audacityofhope]

It is called shafting. Ouru been doing this since 2013, never mind that without Ngatia he may have had the trappings of power rug pulled from under his feet. Orengo told them, they will all go crying to him at his office ....

Why can't he lodge a complaint at the Supreme Court?

Actually no.  Prosecutor requires the same skills as a litigator.  They usually face off, so Karim Khan is well equipped for his role.  It would be a bit weird if he were to be appointed a judge.

Is there a school where judges are trained so that when you leave, pap you become a judge??
Your new CJ in waiting run a firm Martha Koome & Co Advocates from graduation from Law school until 2003 when she was appointed a judge! All Judges were litigators, activists (like Mutunga) or something after graduating before applying to become Judges. So rethink  - what stops Karim Khan and Ngatia from becoming a Judge??

[Nowayhaha]

It goes to show who is running the country, Its not Uhuru but the office of the President.
The Safaricom guy and inlaw of Murathe. Since Uhuru brought them to statehouse things have been unpredictable. They also think they will get away with it.  In the next regime when Uhuru and family enjoy the looted wealth these state house guys will be followed together with their familys to the end. Let them ask the powerful guys under Moi and Kibaki. Power is not a thing to joke with.

Dull Koome needs all bricks thrown at her and the appointment process - she might grow a spine.

Too bad for naive Ngatia, the dynasty want you to serve them and their interests.

ufool is burying all his friends and confidants - Ngatia expects to be an exception??

Women back Koome...
