PRESS STATEMENT BY SENATOR OKIYA OMTATAH ON THE PUBLIC DEBT CASE RULING

Fellow Kenyans,

Today, the High Court delivered an important ruling in our public debt case.

The Court upheld the @IMFNews claim of diplomatic immunity and struck it out of this petition. While we respect the Court’s decision, accountability for Kenya’s debt burden cannot end there.
We are preparing a separate legal challenge to the Bretton Woods Agreements Act, 1963, against the Constitution of Kenya 2010 to ensure all actors involved in Kenya’s debt processes are subjected to proper scrutiny.

Most importantly, the Court rejected attempts by the Attorney General and other respondents to have this case dismissed. The judges ruled that our petition will proceed to a full hearing on its merits.

The Court also dismissed applications by the former Auditor General, former Controller of Budget, the current Auditor General, and the current Controller of Budget seeking to shield themselves from these proceedings.

This is a significant victory for transparency, accountability, and the Kenyan people.

We will amend our petition as directed by the Court and return on 22nd July 2026. Our mission remains unchanged: to establish how Kenya accumulated trillions in public debt, how the funds were utilized , whether the public benefited and whether the law was followed at every stage.

This case is about protecting the future of our nation and the interests of every Kenyan taxpayer.
We remain focused, determined, and committed to seeing it through.

God Bless Kenya.

Wives must return dowry after divorce! In a bold Judgment, the High Court in CKN v DMO (2023) has held that dowry symbolizes a customary union and must be returned upon divorce even if it was paid to the woman’s parents.The wife can later claim it from her parents if she so wishes.The court also declared that alimony is no longer part of Kenyan law because Article 45 provides for equality and therefore no spouse can be compelled to maintain the other after divorce.This also applies to Christian Marriages.

Clients: I did some research online and I think…

Lawyers: Bro, it’s not your job to think. You give me facts, I think. I research. I stress. I fix. You pay. That’s the system.

Law school tricked us into thinking we’d be Harvey Specter. Turns out we’re just Word Specter.

Most legal problems could be solved with one honest conversation and an apology, but people aren’t emotionally equipped for that (luckily for lawyers).

Now I spend my days calculating deadlines, billable hours, interest rates… and how broke I am after taxes...

Lawyering on TV: 99% talking and arguing.

Lawyering in real life: 90% reading, typing, printing, phone calls, billing, crying… and maybe 10% arguing.

The best part about being a law firm owner is that 'checking with the boss' just means refilling my coffee and arguing with myself until I make a decision.

Being a lawyer is 80% reading and typing (emails, drafting, etc.). That’s literally the most of what we do. You don’t need to be an argumentative prick to be a lawyer—shocking, I know.
