Why is it that our learned counsels aren't eloquent as their American counterparts. .I have attended court sessions in the past and its hard even hearing what they say .They blurt words here and there and eloquence is the least of their worries .In part i think the effectiveness of Judge is the communication of facts in the most systematic ,structured way so that all can hear
I seem to have a problem with the style of these interviews.They seem low and unrefined. We expect some level of respect and dignity when handling the judges, not to embarrass them in front of the public.
@nyajowi Agreed. But under the new constitution,majority of Kenyans felt that recruitment (which includes interviewing) of the holders of such an office should involve "thorough"vetting of applicants...oh well...!
Perhaps Mr Ahmednasir should take cue from confirmation hearings by the US Senate where focus tends to be on a candidate's judicial philosophy e.g by asking questions on past judgements and their ratio decidendi, whether they are minimalists or activists. The interviews should be handled with at least some modest decorum least they be turned into all out inquisitions.
Its now clear that we can get an angel out this process, if we go by past judgments everyone has a skeleton in his closet, ranking 1-3 Justices Alnasir , Visram, Kihara Kariuki and the Riaga Omolo rank top respectively , I think the two principles had done their homework but only the process was fraud...

Judges don't rave and rage. They write.

Is this an interview or an interrogation. The interviewer should not intimidate the candidate
