STATEMENTS The Deputy Speaker (Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Hon. Senators, it is now time for Statements. In the past, we have taken a lot of time unduly on Statements. My reading of the Standing Orders is that the purpose of this time is to provide a Statement hour. Therefore, this is ordinarily supposed to be an hour. However, we have ended up taking several hours. I hope that we will make it a Statement hour if not less than that. We will start with the Statement that is being sought by Sen. Kwamboka. COLLAPSE AND CUT-OFF OF A SECTION OF NAROK-MAI MAHIU ROAD Sen. Kwamboka: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, pursuant to Standing Order No. 46(2)(b), I rise to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Roads and Transportation regarding the collapsing and cut-off of a section of the Narok- Mai Mahiu Road due to heavy rains. In the Statement, the Chairperson should:- (1) Explain the short term measures that the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) has put in place to restore roads when such calamities occur especially on the Narok-Mai Mahiu Road. (2) Explain the long term measures that the KeNHA will put in place including redesigning of major roads as a disaster preparedness measure and not limited to building water barriers to stop flood water from entering our roads. (3) Given the unique terrain of the Maa region, what safety measures did the contractor put in place to ensure that the road does not cave in, considering that this road gets cut off every year during heavy rains. (4) Is KeNHA aware of areas where flood waters have receded hence weakened those roads with an eminent danger of caving in? Thank you.

March 21, 2018 SENATE DEBATES 5 Sen. Sakaja: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when we discussed it the first time in the House, I immediately invited the Senator of Samburu to a meeting with the Inspector General of Police and we started working on it immediately. However, some of the things that have been done there are not satisfactory to the Senator but the response is here. The Government is aware that there was a raid in Suyian area of Elbarta ward, Samburu North Constituency. They have listed the number of livestock stolen during the raid and the people who were fatally injured as Ldapon Lesiamito and Lmeretuni Lepoora, both of them Samburu males. There is also a list of another three who were injured and the assertion that the raid was a revenge mission by Turkana raiders following three recent incidence where Lokorach Nakholori aged 45 years and Karing Chuma aged 14 years were killed by Samburu morans and 45 camels stolen.

  • Human Rights, Separation of Powers and Devolution in the Kenyan Constitution, 2010: Comparison and Lessons for Eac Member States
    HUMAN RIGHTS, SEPARATION OF POWERS AND DEVOLUTION IN THE KENYAN CONSTITUTION, 2010: COMPARISON AND LESSONS FOR EAC MEMBER STATES ∗∗∗ By Prof. Christian Roschmann, Mr. Peter Wendoh & Mr. Steve Ogolla Abstract This paper is essentially a study of the new governance system in Kenya and an explanation why constitutional democracy holds the key to the promotion of human rights; entrenchment of the rule of law and the realisation of good governance. The paper suggests that the concept of constitutional democracy is not the same thing as constitutional government; accordingly, to achieve constitutional democracy, a government must be both constitutional and democratic. Further, this paper focuses on the structures, powers and organizing principles of the devolved governance and explores the challenges that lie ahead to ensure that constitutional democracy endures and is strengthened. The Constitution of Kenya, 2010 seeks to establish a society permeated by the spirit of liberty and democracy, the spirit of the laws and the habit of order. This paper proceeds from the assumption that although the constitutional models across the East Africa Community vary considerably, they share common themes that led to the demise of constitutional democracy, human rights violations and weaker institutions of government. The design and architecture of Kenya’s new constitution may, therefore, herald the beginning of the return of the East Africa Community to constitutional democracy. A. Introduction A historical inquiry of the foundations of Kenya’s political system, traceable to the colonial rule, underscores the very political basis of Kenya’s Constitution. Lord Delamere, a pioneer European farmer in Kenya believed the extension of European civilisation was desirable 1.

    MEMORANDUM TO THE JUDICIAL SERVICE COMMISSION ON THE RECRUITMENT OF THE CHIEF JUSTICE AND SUPREME COURT JUSTICE OF THE REPUBLIC OF KENYA March 2021 SUBMITTED BY: The Kenyan Section of the International Commission of Jurists ICJ Kenya House, Off Silanga Road, Karen P.O. Box 59743-00200, Nairobi, Kenya Office Tel: +254-20-2084836/8 | +254 720 491549 Email: [email protected] 1 Introduction The Kenyan Section of the International Commission of Jurists (ICJ Kenya) is a non-governmental, non- profit, non-partisan, and member-based organisation founded in 1959. ICJ Kenya is registered as a Society under the Societies Act, Chapter 108, Laws of Kenya, and has a membership drawn from the Bar and the Bench.

In furthering our vision and mission, ICJ Kenya submits this memorandum to the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) on the Chief Justice and Supreme Court Justice of Kenya's recruitment process. Our views are premised on the principles and best practices of international and regional instruments on judges' appointment and selection.1 Whereas the First Schedule to the Judicial Service Act, 2011 has outlined the criteria for recruitment of the Chief Justice and Supreme Court Judge, this memorandum has highlighted the salient priority issues for JSC's consideration during the current recruitment process, which are informed by public consultations and dialogues forums.

  • Joint Statement on the Threats Against the Independence of Judges in Malawi
    AI Index: AFR 36/2519/2020 15 June 2020 JOINT STATEMENT ON THE THREATS AGAINST THE INDEPENDENCE OF JUDGES IN MALAWI We note with grave concern, the recent notice issued by the Chief Secretary to the Government of Malawi, announcing that the Chief Justice Hon Andrew K.C Nyirenda is with immediate effect going on leave pending his retirement. The statement reads as follows: “Government wishes to inform the general public that the Right Honourable Andrew K. C. Nyirenda, S.C., Chief Justice of Malawi, will proceed on leave pending retirement with immediate effect. The Honourable Chief Justice has accumulated more leave days than the remainder of his working days to retirement date. In accordance with the Constitution, the most senior Justice of Appeal will act as Chief Justice until such time as His Excellency the President will appoint a successor.” We understand that a similar communication has been issued in respect of another Judge of the Supreme Court-Justice Edward Twea. We note that Chief Justice Andrew Nyirenda’s tenure is meant to end in December 2021, while the tenure of Hon. Justice Edward Twea is meant to end in April 2021, when they reach the constitutionally stipulated retirement age. Whilst it is appropriate for a Chief Justice or any judicial officer to go on leave pending their retirement, the decision to do so must be made voluntarily by the concerned judicial officer in consultation with the Judicial Service commission. Furthermore, in light of the separation of powers doctrine, such a decision cannot be communicated by the executive on behalf of the judges or the judiciary.

  • Codifying Criminal Law in East Africa During the Interwar Period
    Stichproben. Wiener Zeitschrift für kritische Afrikastudien / Vienna Journal of African Studies No. 37/2019, Vol. 19, 93‐113. Doi: 10.25365/phaidra.251 Codifying Criminal Law in East Africa during the Interwar Period Paul Swanepoel Abstract By the time the East Africa Protectorate was proclaimed in 1895, Indian penal and criminal procedure codes had been in effect in the region for nearly 30 years, having first been introduced in Zanzibar. The codes had developed as a result of the difficulties faced by administrative officers in India of applying uncodified English law. Jurists responded by drafting codes that were more suited to local conditions. They were applied throughout East Africa until 1930 when the Colonial Office introduced new codes based on the Queensland Code of 1899. These became the basis of enactments applied in colonies throughout the Empire, such as The Gambia, Cyprus and Fiji. Based on primary sources housed in the Kenya National Archives, the article explores the wider implications of these streams of criminal codification as well as their impact on the administration of criminal justice in East Africa. The competing codes provide a clear example of the transfer of legal knowledge around the Empire, and the dominant position of the global over the local. In addition, the story of the replacement of the Indian codes provides an example of jurisdictional manoeuvering by competing authorities, which was a central characteristic of the colonial world. Introduction Codification – the process of collecting and arranging laws into a code – was a central feature of the British Empire. Although the famous English jurist Jeremy Bentham coined the term “codification”, its prospects proved far better in the colonies than in Britain.

URL : http://journals.openedition.org/chs/936 ; DOI : https:// doi.org/10.4000/chs.936 © Droz The creation and evolution of criminal law in colonial and post-colonial societies Leslie Sebba1 Theoretical models of the legislative process are explored in order to seek an explanation of the phenomenon whereby post-colonial democracies frequently retain the legislation adopted by the imperial predecessor. This even applies to criminal codes, in spite of their presumed role in the controlling of colonial populations. A possible explanation is proffered in terms of a bureaucratic model of legislation, which seems to fit both colonial powers and some democracies. Under this model, the character and content of the legislation may depend as much upon the personalities involved in its drafting and promotion, as upon political or structural factors. Cet article examine différents modèles théoriques relatifs au processus législatif afin de rechercher l'explication du fait que les démocraties post- coloniales conservent fréquemment la législation édictée par le pouvoir colonial antérieur.
