Linturi","speaker_title":"","speaker":{"id":69,"legal_name":"Franklin Mithika Linturi","slug":"franklin-linturi"},"content":"Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, elaborate mechanisms are in place. The President as the Head of the Executive is represented in that body by the Attorney-General. He participates in that recruitment and he agrees that certain judges must be appointed, but then the President refuses to do so. The President has a constitutional duty to obey the law. He has no basis or business of not appointing judges once the JSC recommends their appointment."}
