Nakuru County Governor Susan Kihika is set to learn her fate this week as the High Court will deliver a verdict on Wednesday, February 25, 2026, in a case seeking to declare her unfit for public office.

• The Law Society of Kenya (LSK) filed the petition, alleging misconduct during the controversial takeover of the Nakuru War Memorial Hospital in 2023.
• The LSK argues that the governor violated human rights and defied court orders, leading to disruptions and alleged patient deaths.
• Justice Patricia Gichohi will issue the ruling after parties concluded submissions, with the petition aiming to remove Ms. Kihika from office over alleged violations of Chapter Six of the Constitution.
