Chief Justice Martha Koome has effected changes within the Judiciary, transferring High Court Judge Bahati Mwamuye from the Milimani High Court, Constitutional and Human Rights Division in Nairobi to the Kiambu High Court.
The move is part of an annual judicial reorganization exercise aimed at enhancing efficiency, balancing workload across courts and strengthening service delivery within the Judiciary.
Justice Mwamuye, who has been serving at the Milimani-based Constitutional and Human Rights Division, has presided over several notable constitutional and public interest matters.
His transfer now sees him redeployed to Kiambu, where he will continue his judicial duties.
The reshuffle has also affected the Constitutional and Human Rights Division in Nairobi, which had previously been under the leadership of Justice Chacha Mwita.
The division is expected to receive new judges as part of the reorganization.
The annual transfer of judges is a routine administrative process undertaken by the Chief Justice to ensure optimal utilization of judicial officers across different stations and divisions.
It also seeks to promote impartiality, professional development and the effective dispensation of justice.
Further details on the new judicial postings and replacements in the Constitutional Division are expected as the Judiciary continues implementing the changes.
