Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta vows to ‘fix’ judiciary after Supreme Court election annulment
‘Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta has vowed to “fix” the country’s judiciary, following the Supreme Court annulment of his election victory.
Mr Kenyatta’s win was yesterday declared “invalid, null and void” by four Supreme Court judges, who cited irregularities “in the transmission of results”.
A fresh election has been ordered for October.
But Mr Kenyatta, after initially calling for calm, has responded by saying “we clearly have a problem” with the judges who made the ruling.
Speaking at a party meeting at his official residence, Nairobi’s State House, Mr Kenyatta criticised the judges’ decision and said he would return to the issue if elected.
He said: “We shall revisit this thing. We clearly have a problem. Who even elected you? Were you? We have a problem and we must fix it.”’
