Deputy President Prof. Kithure Kindiki attributed recent gains in Kenya's Judiciary's efficiency to the Kenya Kwanza administration, citing unprecedented judicial appointments, improved funding, and renewed reforms. He highlighted the government's commitment to supporting the Judiciary during the launch of the State of the Judiciary and Administration of Justice Report (SOJAR) for the 2024/2025 financial year.

• The government has sworn in 51 judges of the High Court and Court of Appeal, with 40 more in the recruitment pipeline and an additional 45 expected next year.
• DP Kindiki stated that the Judiciary's budget increased from 21 billion in 2022 to 26 billion currently.

Kenya's Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has criticized judicial rulings, stating they impede the implementation of the Kenya Kwanza manifesto and economic development. He made these remarks at the launch of The State of Judiciary and Administration of Justice Report 2024/2025.

• Kindiki argued that judicial independence should be restricted to four areas: decisional independence, financial independence, administrative independence, and operational independence.
• He challenged the Judiciary to interpret Article 43 of the Constitution, which deals with social-economic rights, asserting that the government's manifesto is focused on realizing these rights.
• The administration has supported the Judiciary by hiring 51 High Court Judges, with another 214 Magistrates in the last three years.
