The Court of Appeal has certified as urgent an application by President Uhuru Kenyatta seeking to reverse a decision directing him to swear in six judges he left out in June.
Through lawyer Waweru Gatonye, President Kenyatta argued that the appeal was extremely urgent because there is eminent danger of embarrassment and uncertainty in the dispensation of justice if the six judges are deemed to have been appointed as directed by the High Court.
