The Supreme Court has affirmed the ban on lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi and his law firm in another blow to his clients.
Lawyer Asli Osman on Tuesday pleaded with the apex court to allow the law firm to argue a landmark case on whether children born out of wedlock in Muslim set-ups should be allowed to inherit from their fathers.
However, Chief Justice Martha Koome, her deputy Philomena Mwilu, Justices Mohamed Ibrahim, Smokin Wanjala, Isaac Lenaola, Njoki Ndung'u and William Ouko unanimously rejected Osman's plea.
Instead, they gave Fatuma Abud Faraj 14 days to salvage her case by either hiring a different law firm or lawyer or arguing it herself.
