National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula has called on the Judiciary to remain firm while executing its mandate.
Speaking on Friday, he said that will be part of the Judiciary legacy if they stick to it.
“I salute our judiciary for coming of age and making milestone decisions. Even those who doubt or agree with what you say are respecting it. That is the Kenya we want. May you continue being a true defender of the mighty and weak,” Wateng'ula said.
He called on judicial officers to be time conscious and keep to that tradition and serve Kenyans with distinction.
During the campaign period, President William Ruto cautioned the National Police Service and the Judiciary against being partisan while discharging their duties.
Ruto said the biggest threat to the country’s peace was a partisan police service.
Past-election, he had expressed his confidence in the Judiciary, days before the hearing of the presidential election petition started.
Ruto said he had a strong belief that the Supreme Court will make an independent decision in giving its verdict.
“We have confidence in the courts and we will continue to build the independence of our institutions,” Ruto said.
