City lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi is facing a fresh uphill task as two lawyers have filed a petition seeking to remove him from the Roll of Senior Counsel over alleged professional misconduct.
Among the misconduct allegations that Ahmednasir faces are the persistent attacks on the Judiciary.
In the petition, lawyers Paul Kiragu Wathuta and John Murimi Njomo argue that Ahmednasir has consistently engaged in actions that are highly discrediting for a person of his legal stature, as they invoked Rule 4(c) and Rule 15 of the Advocates (Senior Counsel Conferment and Privileges).
The petition particularly takes aim at Ahmednasir's consistent tirades on social media, especially on X (formerly Twitter), which they argue are meant to malign and discredit the judiciary.
