(Ms.) Odhiambo-Mabona","speaker":{"id":376,"legal_name":"Millie Grace Akoth Odhiambo Mabona","slug":"millie-odhiambo-mabona"},"content":"The other reason which is more worrying to me is that this amendment makes criminal offences administrative actions. I will give you an example. When I was a new advocate of the High Court of Kenya, I was assigned to the then only Election Petition Court. I was made to work there for a whole year and refused to go on leave. But being who I am, after having asked my boss and she refused, I wrote a letter and proceeded on leave. If you followed this, I would have been charged with a criminal offence."}
