[Jonah Onyango, Standard]Attorney-General Kihara Kariuki has filed an appeal challenging High Court’s judgement on Building Bridges Imitative (BBI). Justice Kihara in his appeal, seeking to set aside the verdict by five High Court judges argues that they erred by declaring that President Uhuru Kenyatta can be sued in person. According to Kihara, the verdict by the High Court is a recipe for chaos adding that they ignored the peace process that culminated in a push for Constitution amendment. The AG is also aggrieved that the five-judge bench found that President Uhuru has breached Chapter Six of the Constitution. In the High Court, Economist David Ndii and activists Jerotich Seii, Jane Ngondi, Wanjiru Gikonyo and Ikal Angelei lodged the first case.
