President William Ruto has received temporary relief after the Court of Appeal of Kenya on Friday halted the implementation of a ruling by the High Court of Kenya that had ordered the removal of his 21-member Council of Advisors.

The appellate court ruled that dismissing the President’s advisors at this stage could disrupt the functioning of the presidency. The order followed an appeal filed by the office of the Attorney General of Kenya.

The ruling effectively sets aside the High Court’s earlier decision, which had declared President Ruto’s appointment of the 21 advisors last year unconstitutional.

The suspension will remain in force until the appeal filed by the Attorney General is heard and determined.
