The Supreme Court of Kenya has received an Award of Judicial Excellence from the African Bar Association for its exemplary handling of the 2022 presidential election petitions. This continental recognition highlights the Court's significant role in upholding democracy and the rule of law in Kenya.

• The award was given for handling nine consolidated presidential election petitions in 2022.
• The seven Supreme Court judges, led by Chief Justice Martha Koome, were commended for the landmark ruling that upheld William Ruto's presidency.
• The ruling dismissed allegations of rigging by Raila Odinga, with Chief Justice Koome famously calling some claims 'hot air' and a 'wild goose chase'.
