Holding

The court finds that the petitioners have not satisfied the conditions to strike out the affidavit of Dr. Juma Mukhwana and that the 1st Respondent should admit the petitioners to the Kenya School of Law without any conditions.

Facts

The petitioners are applicants for admission to the Kenya School of Law, but were denied admission due to the rejection of their A-Level certificates by the 1st Respondent. They claim discrimination and violation of their constitutional rights.

Issues

  1. Whether the petitioners have satisfied the conditions to strike out the affidavit of Dr. Juma Mukhwana.
  2. Whether the 1st Respondent should admit the petitioners to the Kenya School of Law without any conditions.

Reasoning

The court's previous judgment declared discrimination against the petitioners and ordered them to submit their A-Level certificates within 21 days. The petitioners failed to comply, hence the need for the court to rule on their admission.

Outcome

The petitioners' application for review was dismissed.

Orders

  • The 1st Respondent should admit the petitioners to the Kenya School of Law without any conditions.
  • The petitioners must comply with the previous judgment's conditions to be admitted.

Remedies

  • Admission to the Kenya School of Law without conditions.

Authorities cited
