The intrigues surrounding Chief Justice interviews in the recent past have not been short of drama. Often seen as one of the powerful but hot seats in the country, candidates are put to task by the Judicial Service Commission over various issues in a bid to weed out the weak and retain the most suitable candidate for the role.
This has led to a few dramatic moments during the interviews. From crying during the interview to fierce exchange of words among judges, Kenyans.co.ke takes a look at such memorable moments.
High Court judge Said Juma Chitembwe was hard-pressed to explain his non-compliant tax status, incomplete wealth declaration forms and past decisions and actions that drew global attention.
