Attorney General Githu Muigai is not planning to appeal against the High Court’s decision to nullify the president’s appointment of 47 county commissioners.
Muigai told the High Court that his position had not changed and was ready to comply with the court’s directive against the appointments.
Through State counsel Stella Munyi they will stick to their earlier position of complying with the ruling that nullified the appointments.
But even as the AG stated his position, Internal Security PS Mutea Iringo sought to have the petition by two civil society activists struck out or amended so that he can respond appropriately.
The PS in a preliminary objection he has lodged is accusing the two activists of abusing the court process.
According to the PS, the case should not be entertained because the petitioners are fully aware that he cannot revoke the appointment of commissioners since he is not the appointing authority.
