President William Ruto on Monday received the report of the tribunal investigating Justice Mohammed Noor Kullow at State House Nairobi.
The tribunal, which was chaired by Court of Appeal Judge Patrick Kiage, dismissed all the allegations against Justice Kullow and recommended his reinstatement to the Environment and Land Court.
The allegations against Justice Kullow included delay in delivery of rulings and judgements, failure to give reasons for the delay and failing to respond to the Chief Justice’s correspondence.
Other allegations were retaining a court file thus denying a party the right to lodge an appeal against a ruling, delivering rulings and judgments without issuing notices, and incompetence.
President Ruto commended the tribunal for doing its work efficiently and within the stipulated time.
Pointing out that Kenya will continue to be a country guided by the rule of law, the President said all citizens are protected by the Constitution.
“Our country is guided by the rule of law. Everyone’s interests are protected by the rule of law,” he said.
He said Kenya is proud of its democratic ideals, adding that all citizens are subject to the Constitution and the law irrespective of their status.
He assured the tribunal that the recommendations it had made would be implemented.
