Outrage greeted the revelation in February 2006 that the Solicitor General, Mr. Wanjuki Muchemi, had paid 6 lawyers (Dr. Gibson Kamau Kuria, Mr. Waweru Gatonye, Mr. Njoroge Regeru, Ms. Lucy Kambuni, Mr. Kioko Kilukumi and Mr. Fred Ngatia) US$ 1 million as legal fees in November 2005 to handle a case arising from the constitutional review crisis.  The case lasted 5 days.  The initial press reports that broke this scandal were greeted by deafening silence in the corridors of power.
