Odinga Cautions Chief Justice Against Meeting President, Warning of Risks to Judiciary
- Raila Odinga warned CJ Martha Koome that meeting President Ruto would compromise judiciary and country
- There are active court cases involving executive, so unwise for CJ to meet now before rulings
- CJ should not negotiate with executive over attacks on judiciary, that leads to capture of judiciary
- MPs have been reduced to rubber-stamping laws hurting Kenyans under Ruto
- Other leaders agreed CJ should stand firm and not treat executive with kid gloves
