Kenya: Maraga - Thorn in Flesh of Executive to the End

When Chief Justice David Maraga delivered his last State of the Judiciary address late last month, he struck a conciliatory tone.
The CJ pleaded for forgiveness from those he might have annoyed or whose expectations he did not live up to.
Among those he reached out to was President Kenyatta, maintaining that he had nothing personal against him or his administration despite having several run-ins.
"It is clear that there is a difference of opinion between me and you. But I want to assure you and the entire nation that I have nothing personal against you. To the contrary, I have given you your respect as our Head of State. I am totally apolitical and hold no brief for any politician or political interest," he said.
