ICT Authority Board Appointments Quashed by the High Court
The illegal appointments made by the ICT Cabinet Secretary, Dr Fred Matiang'i have been quashed by the High Court. Details on the background and the orders of the court are available at http://www.ictak.or.ke/resources/news-and-events/235-statement-on-the-high-c... For the avoidance of doubt, partial implications of the certiorari orders are that the impugned board was illegal *ab initio*. So it is like the board never existed. Reports attributable to the CS are that he plans to appeal the decision. He has an inherent right to do so. What must be clear is that the quash orders are in full force w.e.f yesterday and the board cannot purport to transact or to be seen to do so. This is a crisis the Cabinet secretary has precipitated himself because of a trademark unilateralism approach and failure to engage. Any attempt by any person whatsoever to overlook the prescriptions of the court's decree has obvious sanctions. Kamotho
