Bogeka ward representative Charles Mochoge has slammed the ongoing circulation that ‘Omogusii Unity’ group played a role in the appointment of Court of Appeal Judge David Maraga for the post of Chief Justice.
According to Mochoge, Maraga was appointed out of merit and he deserved the job hence no one played a big role on the same and there was a need for the residents to know that.
“It's funny that after the appointment of Maraga some of the leaders associated with ‘Omogusii Unity are saying that they were behind that and yet I am sure he was appointed to the post on merit,” he added.
The MCA added that the community should be happy for the appointment and the leaders from the region should stop thumping their chests for the same but instead thank God.
This comes barely hours after the Judicial service commission nominated Court of Appeal Judge David Maraga for the post of Chief Justice.
