President William Ruto has suffered a setback after The High Court issued orders barring recently-appointed Chief Administrative Secretaries (CASs) from assuming office pending the hearing and determination of a petition challenging their appointment.
The ruling that was delivered on Friday, March 24 by Friday by Lady Justice Hedwig Ong'udi also directed that the 50 CASs should not earn a salary, remuneration or any other benefit pending the conclusion of the case which will be mentioned on March 28, 2023 for further directions.
LSK and Katiba Institute moved to court and sued the President and the Public Service Commission (PSC) with the 50 CASs listed as interested parties.
