State of Judiciary 2011-2012 9 Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW The Judiciary is one of the three State organs to which the sovereign power of the people of Kenya has been delegated. The Judiciary is bound by the national values and principles of governance in Article 10 of the Constitution, which include patriotism, national unity, sharing and devolution of power, participation of the people, social justice, transparency and accountability, among others. Its main role is to deliver justice as well as interpret the law and the Constitution. The Judicial Service Act, 2011, governs the administration of the Judiciary as well as its functioning. It requires the Chief Justice in Section 5 (2) (b), to give an annual report to the nation on the State of the Judiciary and the administration of justice. This inaugural State of the Judiciary Report takes stock of accomplishments in the past year just as it acknowledges challenges in delivering on this institution’s constitutional and statutory mandate. 1.1 The Constitution of Kenya The Constitution lays the basis for the exercise of judicial authority: Article 159 states that “judicial authority is derived from the people and vests in, and shall be exercised by, the courts and tribunals established by or under this Constitution.” The Judiciary is required to deliver justice, without delay, to all irrespective of status, administer justice without undue regard to procedural technicalities, promote alternative forms of dispute resolutions including reconciliation, mediation, including traditional dispute resolution mechanism, while promoting and protecting the purpose and principles of the Constitution. The Judiciary’s purpose is focused on a higher end -- the cause of justice. The Preamble to the Constitution recognises the aspirations of all Kenyans for a government based on the essential values of human rights, equality, freedom, democracy, social justice and the rule of law. In interpreting the law, the Judiciary is required to always reckon with the imperative to deliver justice.
