Homa Bay Senator Moses Kajwang’ has opined that President William Ruto’s continued onslaught towards the Judiciary might be an avenue to vent out his disappointments over the government’s failed policies.

In the Senator’s view, Ruto is well apprised of the procedures one needs to follow for a policy to be introduced but has yet chosen to attack the judicial arm of government.

He argued that if the far-reaching changes Ruto is keen on introducing are not implemented, he should not target the Judiciary but follow constitutional provisions.

“The balance of power between the three arms of government is what constitutes the rule of law and not rule by law,” he said speaking with Citizen TV’s Day Break show on Tuesday.

“Why would the president extend his frustrations to the Judiciary for failure of government policies yet the judiciary is saying for you to introduce public policy there are certain procedural steps that you must go through.”

Kajwang’ went on to add that Ruto should also focus on other development schemes that have seemingly flopped and not pose the Judiciary as the reason behind the nation’s current crisis.

“I don’t think the courts are to blame for the Kenya shilling being 160 to the dollar today, or they are to blame for the mess in CBC. There are so many things the president can focus on,” he said.

While on the same show, Tana River Senator Danson Mungatana rebutted his counterpart, arguing that President Ruto has been misinterpreted and all he is calling for is a neutral conversation with the Judiciary on streamlining their mandates.

He defended Ruto over his harsh remarks against the Judiciary, noting that he is not targeting the entire institution but a few individuals who have been compromised to frustrate the government’s policies.

“That is not condemning the entire institution, that is not unconstitutional. What is wrong with having a conversation? And this conversation must be heard,” noted Mungatana.

“We have given them (Judiciary) a lot of power. We shouldn’t look at it negatively because the other end is no matter how difficult it is, people start improving institutions.”

Ruto has in recent days mounted a war against the Chief Justice Martha Koome-led judicial arm of government, accusing it of sabotaging his government’s agenda.

He has even vowed to disregard court orders he says are motivated by ‘judicial impunity’.

The statements have invoked a tiff between the Judiciary and the Executive as CJ Koome has faulted Ruto for his disregard of court orders.
