Ibrahim & another v Deputy County Commissioner, Khalalio Sub County & 3 others (Petition E218 of 2026) [2026] KEELRC 2189 (KLR) (28 July 2026) (Ruling)

Court
Employment and Labour Relations Court
Case number
Petition E218 of 2026
Judge
["JK Gakeri"]

The court held that the petitioners did not bring the petition on behalf of any applicants for the advertised chief position and therefore did not fall within the class of persons entitled to move the Employment and Labour Relations Court under section 12 of the ELRC Act. The court consequently lacked jurisdiction and had to strike out the suit.

Case number
Employment and Labour Relations Cause E190 of 2025

There is no evidence of willful disobedience of the court's orders as the recruitment process was completed before service of the status quo order, and no appointment letters were issued after 1st October 2025. The gazettement was not proven to have been done in contempt, as proper service on the Speaker was not established.
