Kenyans have expressed mixed reactions after Supreme Court Chief Justice David Maraga said the repeat presidential case will not take place, Wednesday, due to a quorum hitch.It was only Maraga and Justice Isaac Lenaola who were present out of the seven judges.Below are some reaction from Kenyans on twitter:@DrAbdinasirMK: Which engagement more important than a case on presidential election can a Supreme Court judge be attending to?@WehliyeMohamed: There was NO WAY supreme court was going to postpone the election date today. It not sitting means Raila has dodged another bullet@gabrieloguda: Philomena Mwilu's guard shot. Wednesday made holiday. Justice Njoki can't get a flight. Judge Ojwang resting. Supreme Court quorum hitch.@harrisonmumia: It is not mere coincidence that TWO dissenting Judges of the Supreme Court ruling were conveniently absent today, effecting a quorum hitch!@harrisonmumia: Why couldn't Njoki Ndungu be given time to travel to Nairobi, so that the Supreme Court hears the matter this evening? Where was Smokin?🏃🏃🏃@PrinceTsuma: Don't tell me that GOD made a way for Jubilee party... God does not work in such ways.Supreme Court@tinaokore: It’s evident that our Supreme Court is also divided just like IEBC. “Lack of quorum” was a deliberate move. Sad! #LastDayOfDemocracy@misssKenyatta: The Supreme Court hearing or not, Jubilee will not rule Kenya for the next 5 years. Just too dirty!
@Disembe: In 2013 Njoki Ndung'u cut short maternity to sit on SCOK Presidential Petition. In 2017, she can't travel to Nairobi. #LastDayOfDemocracy
@KinyanBoy: Whatever happened the last 24hrs such that only 2 justices made it to the SCOK bench, behind scenes cards will be read one day.
