Abstract:
The ghost is haunting our chief justice, after the 2017 August elections and the clear assurance of Raila Odinga that he would be going to the Supreme Court to seek redress, the ghost that chief justice emeritus, Willy Mutunga had buried, resurrected and showed its ugly face again. It came from the Registrar of the Supreme Court. The notice issued by the Registrar of the Supreme Court convening the unusual 7 pm pre-trial conference for Mr. Raila Odinga’s presidential election petition concluded with a reminder: “Kindly note that all Counsel appearing before the Court shall be fully robed”. Now, this is the ghost that is giving our Chief justice sleepless nights, he sees the ghost when he walks during the day and in his dreams.
