    "content": "I would like the Minister to clarify the following issues:- He should assure Kenyans and the House of the independence of the Judiciary as enshrined in our Constitution. Two, he should address and clarify claims by the Law Society of Kenya that the Chief Justice has allegedly been interfering with the vetting of Judges and magistrates. Further, I would like him to clarify whether the Vetting Board has complained at all to him of any interference with their work by the Chief Justice. I would also like the Minister to clarify further whether he still has confidence in the Vetting Board in view of the Board’s recent decision to reinstate Judges it had initially found unfit to serve on the Bench. I would like him to clarify whether the Chief Justice is under attack by forces keen on reversing the very positive gains made so far since Justice Willy Mutunga assumed office. Finally, I would like the Minister to clarify what he is doing to protect the Chief Justice from such forces that want to kill and reverse the reform process."
