[Photo|Odeke Ojaamong]Nyeri Town Member of Parliament Ngunjiri Wambugu filed a petition at the Judicial Service Commission (JSC), seeking the removal of Chief Justice David Maraga from office. The Jubilee lawmaker accused Maraga of gross misconduct following a September 1 nullification of August 8 presidential election, which saw his party leader President Uhuru Kenyatta lose his re-election.However, President Uhuru Kenyatta asked him to withdraw the petition, following criticism that he was behind it.Busia Governor Sospeter Ojaamong has raised his voice on the matter, and criticised both the two.He said the action was deliberate by Uhuru, to use Jubilee Party numerical advantage to impose Supreme Court Judges of their choice.The ODM governor indicated Maraga did his job and nullified the presidential results after proving beyond reasonable doubt that the results were bungled. "Instead of trying to threaten the Judges, Jubilee should wait for the full judgment to confirm how the computer generated results were executed," he said."The MP has no moral authority to petition the removal of the CJ. Although Jubilee is trying to distant itself from Ngunjiri's legal moves to evict Maraga from office it is evident he has the backing of the party."Ojaamong who is serving his second term, warned that threats on Maraga should stop."Instead of attacking the Judges Jubilee should ask the IEBC why its server is still running since the August 8 elections and which shows over 80 million people voted!" he added, Saturday.
