seems chief justice mutunga will set up a road block before 2013 elections and only those who pass will be allowed to vie .ruto , kenyatta and many others are basically wasting their time and money if this guy cracks the whip

"The CJ was emphatic that the courts must be seen to uphold the spirit of the Constitution when it comes to interpreting Chapter Six, which he warned could still be used to vet those seeking leadership positions.
Mutunga said the Constitution must be upheld and followed to the letter by the courts to ensure that people seeking to lead are held accountable, and those who fail integrity and leadership thresholds are not appointed or elected to public offices."

That Chapter Six is bollox. Can really be abused by both the executive and the judiciary, especially when the latter start talking of such things like spirits.

What's the ABV of such a spirit? Clearly some people are getting high on one.

How these guys could choose a guy with an earing to the supreme court always surprised me. They will rue their choice.

The spirits are talking. Some will listen; others will go down the annals of history as dead people walking.

Some wazuans don't appreciate the rule of law.
Let CJ do his job.
If it's in the constitution,its for Kenyans.

And what would that be? That is the problem that some of us have.

@mkeiyd don't you think that when we move from express provisions of the Constitution at Chapter Six to the spirit of that chapter (or the Constitution) then it can abused?

@Elder.
You are basically saying that you don't want to be subjected to scrutiny under this chapter. Anybody who wants to hold public office must be ready to be stripped to the bone.

Am I wrong in supposing that almost all presidential candidates may find themselves in court soon, if the chief justice continues to play hard ball?

What price is the chief justice willing to pay for his position?

Why haven't the Ocampo 4 told us that they are willing to stand aside and wait for the court verdict?

I have a feeling that very few Kenyans believe in this constitution, and those that believe have too little power to defend it.

But there must be at least one bold person who is ready to lose his life, possessions, prestige and everything he has for the truth. And in this case, the truth is the Chief Justice's own being.
