Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu has said the differences among Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) commissioners as described by Azimio la Umoja lawyers are like that in a fictional movie.
"What we have heard about this commission is like what we heard sometimes back. We heard someone describing an accident on TV and he said it looked like a video and drama (ni kama video ni kama drama).
"At least that is how I perceived the submissions by the lawyers," Mwilu said.
Mwilu questions lawyers
The DCJ questioned the narrative by the lawyers asking them to clarify when the commission became dysfunctional.
"What corrective measures were attempted if any and with what results?" She asked the lawyers.
At the same time, Supreme Court judge Justice Isaac Lenaola asked the lawyers why the commissioners disagreed with the final results on the last day of the vote counting exercise when in fact they announced the results of all the constituencies except 27.
"We saw your clients reading out results. What evidence do we have that this was not an afterthought?
"Why don't we have anything that for the last two to three months, they documented these kinds of differences?
"My own sense of things is that when you come only at the point of the final declaration, how then do we trust that in fact there were issues before?" He posed.
