Can someone jog my memory which landmark courtcase in Kenya has Ahmednassir ever won for His client/ or rather made a headline ? 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

You could never have been more wrong. Professionals don't tend to vote 'in brilliance' as you assume. Your argument seem to be based on feelings but not facts.

On Senior Counsel title again you are unfortunately arguing from a position of ignorance. When the title was first conferred there were no rules in place and they merely gave it to all past LSK chairs thus people like Ahmednassir, Muite etc got the title - no earning it then through brilliance as you imply.

Tallying results to be availed to all parties from 8am tomorrow. Court to sit at 10am to get reactions from both sides!!

So, despite all the evidence presented as to why the election should be declared void, SC believe it is ok to spend time n take a second look at the results

physiological preparation maybe.

Judges said they decided to re-tally some additional polling stations above the initial 22 and we shall know the results kesho. Guess they want to prepare us for their ruling on Saturday and avoid shocks

Don't know much about the measure for a lawyers brilliance, but the positions and the achievements the guy has had require a good amount of brilliance

Elder, am yet to see a Junior counsel heading the LSK, and may be the Kenya Law Report will be of help

C&P from fb

Today, Orengo, Wako n Mutula had to leave the SC, albeit briefly, to go n be sworn in as Senators, positions into which they got in through the announcement of the same "corrupt, unprofessional, untrustworthy ..." IEBC they r fighting in court. Wow! Our 'Honest leaders
