[Photo/Daily Nation]The ODM party has come out bodly with claims that both the media and senior politicans in the Jubilee party are intimidating the Supreme Court with regards to the election petition that NASA coalition has filed with the highest court in the land.
Led by ODM chairperson MrJohn Mbadi the leaders warned the media against publishing stories that seem to be watering down NASA petition as being weak and one that cannot stand legal test.
“The Jubilee leadership has gone ahead to purport to poke holes in the case even before the pretrial as prove of how weak the case is. This is an attempt to intimidate the Judiciary into throwing away the case,” said Mbadi.
“We ask Jubilee Party to set our courts free and stop intimidation of judges. But we also remind Jubilee that the battle is far from over. They can intimidate the courts but they cannot succeed in intimidating the people,” he added.
