A petition presented by two State agencies seeking to remove Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu from office over gross misconduct is aimed at blocking her from succeeding Chief Justice David Maraga in January, the High Court heard Tuesday.
Justice Mwilu told court that the petition by Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Noordin Haji and Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) George Kinoti is all about the “Maraga succession politics and battles”. She said the energy applied by the DPP and DCI against her is not in the interest of the public but to ensure she does not assume the leadership of the Judiciary.
