Miguna Miguna Blasts CJ Koome Over Her Message on Njonjo's Death

Canada based Kenyan Lawyer Miguna Miguna is not sparing anyone with kind words for the departed Independent Attorney General Charles Njonjo.

Hours after penning a disparaging opinion on the Charles Njonjo he knew, Miguna took on Chief Justice Martha Koome.

In a reaction to her tweet where she condoled with Njonjo's family, Miguna blasted CJ Koome.

He told her off for lauding Njonjo's legal legacy saying the late was not first of all a qualified lawyer.

"Chief Justice @CJMarthaKoome: Stop lying. Mr Charles Njonjo could not have imparted "lawyering skills" that he never possessed because he neither graduated from law school nor was he a member of any bar in the world. Your statements are disgraceful," Miguna stated.

He went further and labelled the CJ as unfit to hold office saying she lacks ethics and that she is working under the patronage of President Uhuru Kenyatta.

Miguna, who never minces his words, is of the opinion that the late Njonjo contributed immensely in undermining Africans and overseeing oppression against the blacks.

"I have come to the conclusion that @CJMarthaKoome is unfit not only to be Chief Justice of Kenya but also to occupy the office of judge.

"She is intellectually impervious. Bereft of logic. Has zero understanding of basic law. Is beholden to @StateHouseKenya. And lacks ethics," he added.

It is on that background that he even disparaged President Uhuru, ODM Leader Raila Odinga and DP William Ruto for penning a positive condolence message about Njonjo.

CJ Koome in her condolences message painted a rosy picture of Njonjo's years of service as an Attorney General saying his rich legacy will serve as a lesson to a generation of lawyers and judges.

"Hon. Charles Njonjo played a pivotal role in the establishment of the Kenyan Bar imparting an exceptional lawyering approach that centred on the ethos of practice and dedicated statecraft...

"His legacy will also serve as an inspiring reference for Judges, Judicial Officers and Advocates on the fundamental considerations of trial preparation to expedite access to justice," her condolences message reads in part.

Charles Njonjo died on January 2, aged 101 years.
