Dennis Itumbi responds to High Court ruling stripping him of CAS position

Dennis Itumbi, one of the 50 CASs whose appointment was revoked by the High Court on Monday, has responded to the decision.

The High Court’s ruling on the 50 CASs has been met with mixed reactions. Some people have welcomed the decision, saying that it was necessary to uphold the rule of law. Others have criticized the decision, saying that it was politically motivated.

Itumbi’s response to the ruling suggests that he is not going to let the decision deter him from his work. He has said that he will continue to serve the people of Kenya in whatever capacity he is able.

Background on the 50 CASs

The 50 CASs were appointed by President William Ruto in April 2023. The positions were created to help the president streamline his administration.

However, the appointments were challenged in court by the Law Society of Kenya and the Katiba Institute. The petitioners argued that the positions were unconstitutional and that the appointments had not been made in accordance with the law.

The High Court ruled in favor of the petitioners on Monday, saying that the appointments were unlawful. The court ordered the government to revoke the appointments and to pay the petitioners’ legal fees.

The government has said that it will appeal the High Court’s ruling.

  • Arranging meetings and events
  • Providing advice to the president
  • Connecting the president with people and organizations
