        She's the same judge whose bodyguard was shot at during the court hearing of the president's elections.. She has been a marked person ever since, ..

        The charges have been backdated to the period 2013 and include not paying taxes ranging at $500 ..this is just petty presidential politics.... Just to smear her name and make her step aside from the Supreme Court due to gross misconduct...

        If you only knew the politics behind it. Philomena Mwilu arrest is most probably a witch-hunt.

        President @UKenyatta has said he wants his legacy to be 'Fighting Corruption'. He was being interviewed by BBC today. Could these be the results?

        The Kenyan justice system has come of age. Whatever the outcome of this earth-shaking arrest, the damage on the person and office of the deputy Chief Justice is done. Her stay in that office is untenable. I've nothing but admiration and respect for @ODP_kenya
