Few years down the line ,the citizens of kenya had no faith in the kenyan law courts. The citizens together with the 'reformists' worked tirelessly to come up with a new constitution.They rest all their trust on the document and eventually vote for it in a refurredum in 2010. Changes started to show up in different government departments.
The judiciary is not left out , first we witness a transparent interviewing of the president and the vice president of the spreme court. Eventually we get new people to fill these offices. Mr Willy Mutunga as the president of the spreme court and Mrs Nancy Baraza as the vice president of the spreme court.
The whole process receives praises from many. The citizens hopefully wait to see the new dawn in the judiciary.
Before long Mrs Nancy Baraza startles everybody on the eve of the new year 2012 by holding a gun at Mrs Kerubo, a security officer in a supermarket in Nairobi. At some point am disturbed and wonder,'If it were a junior judge or magistrate, could there be a commission for investigating him or her?'
'Were it that a male justice had done that to Mrs Kerubo what could have been FIDA's response?' Mrs Baraza has now moved to court to block the commission from probing her claiming it has no powers to do so.Meanwhile the story takes another dimenson with some politicians coming out to defend Mrs Baraza.
Just a year after voting in the new constitution, it comes out clearly that it is just but a document. The players in the game still remain the same. When is this angel called justice going to pay Kenya a visit?
