I am with @a4architect on this one. I've also previously worked as a civil servant and during our time you needed a letter of approval to travel from the PS/Minister to get you through immigration at the airport.

Let us conclude that the CJ is not a civil servant. Whom does he serve?

Himself?

@Maka. .any international travel that uses public funds/security e.t.c has to be cordinated by the executive. How does the Judiciary account at treasury and with NSIS for example if they do not communicate to them? Maybe the Judicial code of conduct could be missing crucial requirments and needs ammending. I have never seen it so i cant speak about it. I can only authoritatively speak about the Civil service code of conduct.

To conclude on my part: Very bad day for njumbiree.....chasing demons all over the place!!!!!

.....time for them to go back to reading 'the kenya daily post'

way forward...

1) Police / CID to investigate letter under new constitutional powers and tell us its origin. The origin should then be prosecuted by the DPP.

2) Kimemia to clear air if he has indeed asked that the CJ gets clearance from OP before travel and if so the basis under the law. AND THERE SHOULD BE A BASIS otherwise this will be harassment and punishable under the law.

3) Immigration ministry to explain why its officials stopped the CJ (If they ever did so) and under whose instructions and the law under which they did this.
If no basis then DPP should prosecute them.
If CJ is not telling the truth, then he should be prosecuted for dangerous utterances.

Then we can know who did what and why. Before this is done, we will only politic and raise political temperatures.
