Lumumba criticises bid to extend Supreme Court judges contracts (Youtube-Clip)
“Kenya School of Law Director, Prof PLO Lumumba has criticized a bid by a section of Supreme Court judges to seek extension of their term to 74 years. He said the constitution was clear that a judge shall serve up to the age of 70 and urged those who had attained that age to retire honorably” (Daily Nation, 2016).

Some more documents into the Judge Willy Mutunga v. Hon. Lucy Njora ++
Here you see more on the imposed scandal that are happening in the Supreme Court and the challenge of hiring a new judge, how they appropriately address the matter between themselves. This here is more on the matter, as things goes and goes! After the E-Mails, planned time in court and also a Petition to Court as well; this here will not stop until hopeful justice have prevailed!

Colleagues:
The CA (Court of Appeal) has decided.
I am told there are applications and appeals already filed.
I have instructed Hon Lucy Njora (Supreme Court Deputy Registrar) to place the applications before me for directions.
I will deal with the applications as a single judge.

CJ,
I saw your email very late. It would have been better if you had called on phone directly if you had directions for me. I assure you I have followed the provisions of our rules and Act strictly.
As duty Judge for today I already heard 2 certificate of urgency applications by Justices Rawal and Tunoi. I have already disposed of them, given interim orders and given dates for interparties hearing. I think that is in order.
Sincerely,
Njoki

I counseled against copying the applicants in any mail coming from us!
I thought, given the history of this matter, you would have considered that those of us who are around could be involved in some brief conferencing. Even as a duty judge, isn’t there a standing guideline that after the files are given to judges is either the CJ or the DCJ who does the allocation?
I am surprised you suggest I should have called you? Did you think of calling me?!

Subject: Re: The Decision of the CA
With utmost respect CJ, I do not understand your angry tone – which I find inappropriate – to me in this email, for the following reasons:
- I did not know you were in the country to begin with as your earlier email communication to us indicated you would be out of the country from the 22nd may. (How would I know to call you when you are out of the country? You never pick my calls anyway.)
- You did not copy any email to ME asking not to copy our colleagues.
- The first email from you to me arrived in my inbox at 2.31 pm when I had already started listening to the matters, and I was not online at that time. I only saw your email AFTER I had disposed of the applications.
- Justice Ojwang who was the only other Judge not affected by the matter who was in chambers at the time and we consulted and agreed I should proceed hear the matters.
- The matters were exparte and took a short time. I communicated to you immediately I saw your email and got your message from The DR.
- I am not aware that there is anything wrong or untoward with the manner I handled the matters.
- Did you have a specific outcome in mind? It appears to me, that once again you are having issues with the decisional independence of Judges in your court, particularly myself. This is a subject that has been discussed before. How do you suggest we handle this?

Also this one which is fake and which is real:
The one up top or the one in the bottum, which is real? Aye?
Enough for now., right? We shouldn’t need to ask what is the real age of Judge, they should be honest men walking around us. The ones that we trust as their judgement should be as they are the epitome of law abiding citizenship. Instead here we have seen of dozen documents and proof that there is a state of unlawfulness in the Supreme Court of Kenya, and it is not a good look! Peace.

Press Briefing: Decision of the JSC on the allegation of bribery against Justice Phillip Tunoi (05.02.2016)
The Text:
The Judicial Service Commission has this afternoon received the report of the Special Committee set up on 27th January 2016 to inquire into the allegation of bribery against Hon Mr. Justice Phillip K. Tunoi.
The Commission has deliberated upon and adopted the report.
The Commission is satisfied that from the totality of the material and information presented before it there was inappropriate interaction and communication between the Hon. Mr. Justice Phillip K. Tunoi and agents of a litigant in a matter pending before the Supreme Court. This in the opinion of the Commission amounts to gross misconduct and misbehavior, sufficient to warrant the establishment of a tribunal to further investigate the matter.
Secondly, as to whether or not there is material to suggest that a bribe was given to the Hon. Mr. Justice Phillip K. Tunoi on 27.8.2014 in order to influence the decision in Supreme Court Election Petition No 18/2014 Evans Odhiambo Kidero & 4 Others -Vs- Ferdinand Waititu Ndungu & 4 others to favour the Petitioner, the Commission is satisfied that this is an issue that requires further investigation by the said tribunal.
Arising from the foregoing, the Commission is satisfied that a Prima Facie case of gross misconduct and misbehaviour has been disclosed against the Hon. Mr. Justice Phillip K. Tunoi.
The Judicial Service Commission shall therefore recommend to his Excellency the President that a tribunal be established to investigate the matter.
Dated at Nairobi this 5th day of February, 2016.

Two Clips on one Corruption case in Kenya: “2 million US dollars can fit into 2 standard size suitcases” & “Justice Tunoi, Whistle blower Kiplagat appear before JSC Committee” (Youtube-Clips)
“2 million US dollars can fit into 2 standard size suitcases. Kiplagat alleges Kidero bribed Justice Tunoi with 2 million dollars. 2 million US dollars would weigh about 20Kgs” (Kenya Citizen TV, 2016).
“Supreme Court Judge Phllip Tunoi sought to discredit his accuser in the Sh 200 million bribery saga as he fought off allegations that could bring down his career and those of several colleagues. Appearing before a committee probing the allegations Tunoi said an affidavit implicating him was possibly drawn by judiciary staff in an elaborate plot to end his career. As Francis Gachuri now reports Tunoi’s accuser Geoffrey Kiplagat also appeared before the committee that has until Wednesday to submit its findings” (Kenya Citizen TV, 2016).
Think, that is enough for now. Peace.
