 Kenyans urged to be patient as they wait for Court of Appeal’s decision on BBI

Kenyans have been urged to be very patient as they wait for the decision of the Court of Appeal on the issue of the Building Bridges Initiative appeal which is before it.

Former President of the East African Law Society James Aggrey Mwamu says submissions from both the appellants and the respondents on the matter have been fully done and concluded.

Addressing media after visiting Buoye Primary school where he distributed Covid-19 kits that include Hand washing tank, Face masks and sanitizers through Mwalimu James Japheth Mwamu Foundation, Mwamu said it is now time for Kenyans to be patient as they wait for the verdict of the Court of Appeal on the matter.

Mwamu says whatever the decision that the Court of Appeal will make, Kenyans should be ready to the judgment.

“The Court of Appeal will make a decision either way by overturning or upholding the High Court recent decision on BBI,” Mwamu says.

The Court of Appeal will deliver its Judgment on August 20 this year on the appeal that was made before it after the High Court declared the Building Bridges Initiative as unconstitutional.

The Court of Appeal President Justice Daniel Musinga said the Seven- judge bench hearing the case has made careful deliberations as the four day to hear the appeal came to an end yesterday on Friday July 2, 2021.

As from Tuesday last week, the Court of Appeal has been hearing submissions from both the Appellants and the respondents in the matter where top legal minds both young and the old have been arguing it before the Seven-Judge-bench led by the Court of Appeal President Justice Daniel Musinga.

Kenyans will wait for about 48 days for the Court of Appeal to come up with its judgment next month on the twentieth day.

Meanwhile, Mwalimu James Japheth Mwamu Foundation has awarded more KCPE 2020 best candidates in Primary schools within Kisumu County.

At Buoye Primary school, the Foundation awarded six candidates who did well in the last year’s National Exams where some of its candidates scored over 400 marks and have now been admitted to join secondary schools in the National categories.
