CHIEF JUSTICE DAVID KENANI MARAGA
Date of Birth: 12th January, 1951
Marital Status: Married with three children
Nationality: Kenyan
CAREER OBJECTIVE:
In obedience to God’s Command and Will, and guided by the Constitution, to serve humanity, and Kenyans in particular, with dedication, honesty and integrity, striving at all times to uphold the rule of law and do justice to all.
A. PERSONAL PROFILE
I am a God fearing person who believes in, and endeavours to do, justice to all irrespective of their status in society. I have a great passion for upholding the rule of law, which is an essential ingredient for social justice, political stability and economic development. I value people as a core resource and have had great pleasure and success in building teams towards effective justice delivery.
I am results-oriented and have worked with a diverse range of partners, committee’s, panels and other bodies to deliver the desired change and results consistently throughout my career to date.I am particularly keen on building a solid leadership pipeline and enabling people to achieve their fullest potential.
In this regard, I have taken up inspirational leadership as a hobby and mentoring young people and professionals as second nature.
I am self-driven with strong organizational and administrative skills and the ability to work independently as well as collaboratively. I particularly pride myself in my ability to positively interact with the various consumers of justice, regardless of their level, to address pertinent issues concerning the justice system. This has resulted in enhanced credibility of the Judiciary in the courts and stations where I have worked.
As a Judge, though I am occasionally provoked to anger by counsel, litigants or witnesses who try to frustrate the court process, I am, however, able to understand their situations, control myself and firmly, yet courteously and fairly, deal with the situation thereby maintaining court decorum. Further, utilizing my fluency in Kiswahili, when I realize that interpretation in court is not effective, I put counsel’s questions to the witnesses in Kiswahili ensuring that the hearings proceed fairly and smoothly. I am also given to kindness; using that gift, I talk to parties especially those who are unrepresented, in order to make sure they are at ease. I explain to them the nature of the cases and ensure they understand what is required of them before we start the proceedings.
As a responsible citizen of Kenya, I am an Elder and one of the Bible-Study leaders of the Seventh Day Adventist Church. I have also served as Member of the Board of Governors of Sironga High School in Nyamira, Njoro Girls High School and Lanet Secondary School.
B. Professional Profile
I am a senior legal professional with extensive experience in the Bar and on the Bench, and with a nascent but growing interest in academia. I was admitted to the Roll of Advocates 38 years ago, and I have served as judge of Kenya’s two Superior Courts for about 13 years.
I have a strong track record both in the Judiciary and private practice, where I have successfully served both as a professional and a leader. I have also been exposed to many different facets of law, varied working environments, people, and communities making me a well-rounded individual.
