A request has been submitted to the Judicial Service Commission to oust Chief Justice Martha Koome from her position due to allegations of improper appointment of members to the Tax Appeal Tribunal.
Michael Kojo Otieno, the petitioner, asserts that the CJ disregarded the law when selecting individuals for the tax appeal tribunal. The petition claims that the judge failed to exercise her powers honestly and transparently, discriminating against certain applicants. Kojo argues that the CJ’s actions, which exceeded the required number of appointments, violated the Tax Appeal Tribunal Act.
Consequently, he believes that the Chief Justice is unfit for office and should be dismissed. The petition describes the CJ’s appointment of the tax appeal tribunal as illegal, null, and void, rendering her unsuitable for public office.
