Sonko Seeks to Nullify Impeachment Rulings

Former Nairobi Governor Mike Mbuvi Sonko has petitioned the High Court to nullify the judgments that upheld his impeachment.

Sonko's petition is based on the participation of former High Court judge Said Juma Chitembwe, who was found to have engaged in judicial misconduct.

Key Demands

  • Nullification of the impeachment judgments
  • Orders barring enforcement of the contested decisions
  • Rehearing of the consolidated petitions before an expanded High Court bench

The case raises questions about the impact of judicial misconduct findings on previous decisions.
