Chief Justice Martha Koome has praised the judiciary employees for their cooperation this year.
In a statement issued on December 31, Koome stated that the courts were able to address difficulties relating to human resources, money, and infrastructure via their help and participation.
“I thank all the Judges, Judicial Officers and Judiciary Staff for the hard work and outstanding service to the people of Kenya throughout the year,” CJ Koome said.
“I am grateful to the remarkable collaboration from our stakeholders that include the Judicial Service Commission, the Executive, the Legislature, state agencies, actors in the justice sector and development partners.”
The CJ stated that the efforts of the Judiciary and stakeholders ensured the arm’s financial independence.
The Judiciary was one of the winners in former Treasury Secretary Ukur Yatani’s 2022-2023 budget, which was tabled before Parliament in April.
The Judiciary got Sh18.5 billion, an increase of Sh1 billion above the 17.7 billion it received in the fiscal year 2021-2022.
