Attorney-General Kihara Kariuki has filed an appeal challenging High Court’s judgement on Building Bridges Imitative (BBI).
Justice Kihara in his appeal, seeking to set aside the verdict by five High Court judges argues that they erred by declaring that President Uhuru Kenyatta can be sued in person.
At the same time, he faults the court for finding that some sections of the Constitution cannot be amended.
He accuses Justices Joel Ngugi, George Odunga, Teresiah Matheka, Jairus Ngaah and Chacha Mwita of bias and ignoring Kenya’s history on Constitution-making.
According to Kihara, the verdict by the High Court is a recipe for chaos adding that they ignored the peace process that culminated in a push for Constitution amendment.
