First Instance Judgment
Verdict | In response to the prayer that the judges disqualify themselves from further hearing of the reference and applications therein, Justice Moijo Ole Keiwua has made a response declining to do so. We agree with his position as there is no basis for the prayer. His response shall be deemed to be incorporated in this ruling. In view of the withdrawal of the application against Justice Kasanga Mulwa he thought it unnecessary to respond. Accordingly the prayer that the two judges disqualify themselves from further hearing of the reference and applications therein, is also rejected. |
