He declined to answer questions from journalists.

"I am not ready to answer any question," he said.

On September 1, the Supreme Court nullified the re-election of President Uhuru Kenyatta and ordered fresh poll be conducted in 60 days.

The CJ agreed together with Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu, Smokin Wanjala and Isaac Lenaola that the electoral body messed up transmission of poll results.
