High Court declares Ruto’s task force on police welfare unconstitutional

The High Court has declared President William Ruto’s move to establish a national task force to review police welfare unconstitutional.

Justice Lawrence Mugambi found that the President violated the Constitution by unilaterally creating the 23-member task force, which was chaired by former Chief Justice David Maraga.

As a result, the court ruled that the task force is unconstitutional, and any decisions or actions made by it are also invalid.
