What is the first thing that comes in your mind when you hear judiciary in Kenya? Most people who have not been caught in the real mess that requires courts intervention will be quick to shout “that is where justice is served.”
But what if i tell you that our courts offer the best massage services. I know you will be asking yourself how now? It is true best massage services are offered their, just pass by any court room and be a witness.
The war against everything, not crime , graft i mean everything our courts have proved that they can’t handle them in other better pace than that of the snail.
The courts in Kenya are slowly turning out to be places where justice is expensive to get. The way they handle cases just raises many questions, even to some extent people prefer they just go back to their jungle laws.

The rate at which bribery is taking place in the courts is with no doubt at its peak. Most top politicians linked with major cases always get lighter sentences than a person caught stealing chicken.
The trend continues. Kenyans are still waiting for any successful prosecution in the major cases in the courts right now.
Now this is what angered Kenyans have to say on the turning of courts into massage parlours:
