Chief Justice nominee Martha Koome yesterday said she plans to make the Judiciary more accessible and efficient.
The Court of Appeal judge said she nurtured her vision for the Judiciary for many years, exemplified by her bid for the deputy CJ’s post twice.
She promised an assessment of the Judiciary, the human resource and structures to enhance accountability.
“My vision for the Judiciary stems from what is in the Constitution. The Constitution is a progressive instrument that requires that the administration of justice is always responsive to the needs of Kenyans,” she said.
