Azimio la Umoja leader Raila Odinga says recent swearing-in of judges by President William Ruto is an attempt of the Executive to capture the Judiciary.
"There is a push by the Executive to own the Judiciary through illegal actions that amount to bribery and that is why there was a rushed decision to swear in judges and allocate funds to the Judiciary. It is a plain attempt to capture the Judiciary through bribery,” Mr Odinga said during Azimio Parliamentary Group meeting in Machakos on Friday.
