Speaking in Narok on Sunday, DP Ruto said the government adhere to court orders, adding that any State officer found in contempt of court will be help accountable for his/her actions.

He warned that the country risks getting into anarchy and chaos due to disobedience of court orders.

"Every public officer has their responsibility both individual and collective to ensure that this country is built on that firm foundation of respect to the rule of law," Ruto said as quoted by the Star.

"It is the responsibility of every state officer and the government itself to respect the law at all cost. Any public officer who disobeys these court orders we want to categorically state that they will carry their cross individually," he noted.

Meanwhile, the government has been facing criticism from various factions for allegedly disobeying court orders.

Last week, the government was accused of issuing a red alert against exiled lawyer Miguna Miguna despite several court orders directing for his unconditional return.

Over the week, Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria was detained even after being released by a court.
