The High court will be handling a case in which Nairobi governor Johnson Sakaja was summoned over the green park terminus directive.

Sakaja is required in court to explain why he disobeyed a court order stopping the move to relocate matatus to the Greenpark Terminus.

The trial court in 2021 had found that the man though guilty, was insane and sent him to jail to be held at Presidential Pleasure.

But the court in its judgment has since found that he was exposed to an unfair trial because of his mental condition.
