"A case in which transgender people are seeking inclusion in the implementation of the one-third gender rule in Parliament has been referred to Chief Justice Willie Mutunga.

The CJ is expected to constitute a three-judge bench to weigh the petition.

While referring the case to the CJ, High Court Judge George Odunga said the petition raises "weighty" issues of law and although it may be determined by a single judge, "it must be appreciated that a superior number of judges" was best placed to handle the matter."

This is Kenya, mind you.
