Ringera - Only courts can decide

His sentiments come barely 2 days after several parties including Ikolomani Member of Parliament Bonny Khalwale withdrew their cases against Ringera and his deputies to allow for him to step down, an issue Wako says he is party to but is yet to be informed.

Speaking during a funds drive attended by deputy prime minister Uhuru Kenyatta and several ministers at Alliance Boys High School, Wako said parliament may have decided to annul Ringera's appointment but only the courts can arbitrate and resolve the matter conclusively.

Three days ago Ringera said only the courts can declare the President's move illegal and annul the reappointment.

And in defiance, Justice Ringera also indicated that the commission will not pay for an advertisement inviting applications for his post and those of his two deputies, one of which Dr Smokin Wanjala has already resigned while the other, Fatuma Sichale remains in the office.

Members of Parliament are lobbying for an early recall of parliament to facilitate the obliteration of the KACC's budget or abolish the body altogether.
