The Judiciary wants disciplinary action taken against renowned lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi for repeatedly accusing judges of corruption without proof.
In a statement on Tuesday, May 27, the Judiciary Spokesperson, Paul Ndemo, called on the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) and the Senior Counsel Bar to punish Senior Counsel Ahmednasir over his allegations, which he said are baseless. Ndemo claimed that the lawyer is taking advantage of his popularity to spread 'lies' about the Judiciary, and is in the process, tarnishing the reputation of the institution.
The spokesman who labelled Ahmednasir as unprofessional, for his "misdirected, callous, casual and reckless conduct", said punishing him will be pivotal in restoring dignity in the country's legal ecosystem.
