In August last year, the Supreme court ruled that the presidential petition filed by Azimio Leader Raila Odinga against President William Ruto was all ‘hot air’.
In the unanimous decision by all the seven judges the court used the term hot air which did not go down well with the Azimio leaders who criticised the apex court for using such term.
Just last week, Justice Nixon Sifuna while delivering a ruling between Asset Recovery and a Tech company said the investigators conducted the matter in a Simon Makonde style.
“It was conducted in a Simon Makonde Style (the sad story of the primary school reader series) where today the suit is filed, tomorrow it is alive and the next day it has been suffocated to death by its initiator- the agency,” the judge ruled.
In Malindi, Justice Evans Makori while delivering a judgement in the land dispute said there is a current slang that for you to buy land in Kenya you will need drunkard from the local area to tell you whether you will be purchasing ‘air’.
“There is this current slang going around in social media that for you to buy land in Kenya you will need a good lawyer, surveyor, and a drunkard from that local area to tell you whether you will be purchasing “air”. The latter person will likely mirror the title better than the land registries,” the judgement reads.
