Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu on Monday confirmed that members of the Supreme Court bench received threats after nullifying President
Uhuru Kenyatta 's August 2017 presidential election.
DCJ Mwilu, however, stated that the threats did not affect the Judges' subsequent ruling that upheld the October 26 repeat presidential poll.
"We were threatened, that is for sure. I must confess because I don’t know how to clothe a lie.
"I am not sure whether the threats cowed the judges as to affect our subsequent decisions. But the threats never entered my soul and I thank God it never did," DCJ Mwilu conveyed.
