The Supreme Court of Kenya has called upon the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) to refrain from proceeding with the threat of urging its membership to occupy the Supreme Court.
The protest is in regards to the Supreme Court decision of recusing itself from hearing and determining any matter by Ahmednasir Abdullahi, SC and his law firm or associates.
In a press statement sent to newsrooms by the Judiciary Spokesperson Paul Ndemo, the Judiciary has noted with concern a statement issued by Law Society of Kenya dated 23rd January, 2025 urging its membership to occupy the Supreme Court saying LSK members, as officers of the Court, fully understood the importance of the sub judice rule, and the significance of observing the rule of law.
Ndemo said that it was imperative that they sought lawful and peaceful means to address the matters at hand. "It is instructive that this matter is before the courts including the East African Court of Justice, the Court of Appeal, and the High Court," he added.
