I think He is a bully and an opportunist , am yet to place Him in the league of J.Khaminwa, Oraro,Lee Muthoga , Gitobu , Orengo , Pravin Bowry jsut to mention a few. Surely, do u think the guy would have qualified to be the LSK chair and a member of the JSC with no case won? Some arrogance is needed in law Yes. Like with all the elective posts, all one needs for those two is to be a good politician. Winning of cases or brilliance in court is not a requirement. Politics is not a profession my friend. The guy has proven to his fellow learned friends that he is worth the salt. Both the chair or LSK and the LSK representative to the JSC are elective posts. And he had to campaign for the same. And FYI his election to the latter (at least the one am aware of) was not based on his brilliance or winning of cases. If you ask most of those who voted for him, neither was a factor. End of the day, as with all elective posts it is all about politics. Yes they are elective posts but professionals tend to vote in brilliance and this is not exhibited just in the profession of law but also others. Infact even to be accorded the title Senior counsel, you have to earn that "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.
