Ringera holed up

Aaron Ringera is holed up in a closed door meeting Wednesday with staff of the anti-graft commission at Integrity House in Nairobi.

This follows intense lobbying by civil society organizations, the Law Society of Kenya, parliament and diplomatic missions for Justice Ringera's resignation after the President reappointed him and his two deputies for a second five-year term in office.

Ringera's closed door meeting comes a day before the Commission's Advisory Board meets to finalize plans to advertise the positions for the KACC Director and his two deputies.

The Advisory Board is supposed to select candidates and sent them to parliament, which vets and gives the President a name to appoint.

Meanwhile, Law Society of Kenya Vice Chairman James Mwamu says the Society intends to mobilise resources to place an advertisement for the positions in the event that he fails to resign.
