In total agreement with the views expressed. If any case similar to the one
filed by the FAC against President Trump was to find its way to the Kenyan
Courts, I see them ruling in a like manner as the American Court since that
is what a proper interpretation of Art. 35 of the Constitution and Sec. 5
of the Access to Information Act calls for.
