The Supreme Court has affirmed the Court of Appeal’s orders outlawing three laws passed by the National Assembly without the Senate’s consensus.

Chief Justice Martha Koome, Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu, and Justices Mohamed Ibrahim, Smokin Wanjala, Njoki Ndung’u, Isaac Lenaola, and William Ouko unanimously agreed that three laws—the Equalization Fund, the Saccos Societies Amendment Law, and the amendments to the Kenya Medical Supplies Authority Act—should have been passed by the Senate and were therefore, unconstitutionally enacted.
