Vibrant city lawyer Peter Wanyama has urged Chief Justice Martha Koome to stop what he termed as irregular transfer of judges.
Lawyer Wanyama while responding to the CJ’s decision to transfer Hon.Justice Linus P Kassan said that minor errors committed by judges should not be the basis of transfers.
” The CJ should stop transferring Judges because of the decision they make. The error is human,” he said in a Facebook post.
He wondered why the judge was transferred barely five months since he was stationed at Meru High Court.
” The Learned Judge has barely served in the station for five months,” he added.
Correcting the CJ on her decision, the vibrant advocate said that there are some Judges who have at some key stations for over four years but the CJ is yet to act.
” The same CJ does not want to transfer a certain Judge who has worked in key division at Nairobi for more than four years, I could be wrong but can the transfer be published so that I can quench my right to know? He added.
Wanyama has been a key constitution defender and has in recent months spoke against the evils committed by the state.
