To everyone sitting their Bar Exams, may your hard work, sleepless nights and sacrifices finally bear fruit. Trust your preparation, believe in yourself and take each paper one question at a time. You have come too far to doubt yourself now. Wishing you every success!

So now we shift blame from Ruto and his abduction cabal to a judge?The judge who granted us audience, cleared his busy schedule to consider the application, directed us to file a fresh certificate for orders within an hour instead of a week later?Justice Muteti did his level best

In Synon Capital Ltd v Maingi, the High Court has held that the mere threat of execution of a money decree does not constitute substantial loss. An applicant must demonstrate the likelihood of suffering loss, including inability to recover the decretal sum if the appeal succeeds.

[Caroline Oduor @OduorACaroline]

Our call remains simple and unwavering: we want Wakili Abdi back, safe and alive. We will continue to stand together, speak up and keep calling for his safe return. We must not allow the passage of time to weaken our resolve or silence our voices.

True…

This was my experience:

1. Session started at 9 am and ended by 10 am.

2. 10 matters listed and disposed as follows:

3. Of the ten, 8 were overtaken by events, applicants didn’t show up for half of them.

4. One matter compromised by consent.

5. One matter heard for 5 mins.

And the judges left and went back home and told family, “I am from work”.

[Nelson Havi SC @NelsonHavi]

What I have published today on the proceedings before the Court of Appeal is what happens everyday. 80% of applications for stay of proceedings or injunction pending appeal are withdrawn on account of being “overtaken by events.”

In all cases, the unconcerned Judges never apologize, show remorse, or improve their service delivery. Advocates quietly withdraw or are forced to withdraw their applications. You had the President shout at me, “you can continue complaining as you wish.” Imagine what will he say to the poor Wyclife Oyoo.

I will not withdraw mine. I will use it as an example to the Court of Appeal and the public that the Judges must serve the People of Kenya efficiently and effectively. They will have to hear it even it is overtaken by events. Let them waste time as they have always wasted advocates’ and litigants’ time and money.

[Nelson Havi SC @NelsonHavi]

Nelson Havi v Martha Koome was before the Court of Appeal today, for the hearing of my application filed 20 months ago, to stay proceedings before the High Court in the matter of Martha Koome v JSC & Others. The proceedings have since been concluded and a judgment delivered. Time and money wasted.

The Court came prepared to adjourn, perfunctorily, at the behest of Mr Justice Asike Makhandia who has sued and been sued by my client Captain Kung’u Muigai. A flimsy ground by all standards. Why couldn’t he have done so earlier, administratively when the bench was set up?

I took the opportunity to indicate to the President of the Court of Appeal the need for the Court of Appeal to ensure expeditious determination of applications in order that appeals are not overtaken by events as is mine. The President was not prepared to listen but I will take up the matter with him in a meeting scheduled for tomorrow with the Senior Counsel Bar. This lethargy must stop.

I had my tea with milk everyday in Kenya, at least 4 times a day, and I am now realizing that you need to leave Nigeria to realise that you are not really lactose intolerant, we are just being poisoned with artificial food. 😂😂😂

An evening immersed in the rich culture and traditions of the Gema community at Ngemi Cia Watho. From the vibrant dances to the warm interactions and laughter, it was a beautiful experience celebrating the diversity of our people.

[Caroline Oduor @OduorACaroline]

What an evening!😌

[Caroline Oduor @OduorACaroline]

And, in my usual fashion, I could not resist joining in the dance!

[Caroline Oduor @OduorACaroline]

How we arrived at Ngemi cia watho 2.0!!

[Caroline Oduor @OduorACaroline]

The strength of the Bar is reflected in how we stand with one another, especially in difficult moments. Let us continue to stand in solidarity with Wakili Abshir, keep his family in our thoughts and speak with one voice in calling for his safe return.

The police should produce Advocate Abshir Ahmedsadak Abdi without any further delay. We are not interested in explanations because they either have him or ought to know where he is.

[Faith Odhiambo @FaithOdhiambo8]

I am deeply concerned by the reported abduction of Advocate Abshir Ahmedsadak Abdi. Establishing his whereabouts and ensuring his safety must be an immediate priority. His family and colleagues should not have to plead for answers.

I call on the Inspector-General of @NPSOfficial_KE and the @DCI_Kenya to act urgently to locate him, secure his safe return and investigate those responsible. If he is in state custody, the authorities must disclose where he is held and the lawful basis for his detention. Silence is not an acceptable response.

The safety of advocates is not a favour from the State. It is a duty the State must fulfil. We cannot defend access to justice while accepting that those entrusted with advancing it can simply disappear. Bring Abshir home safely.

[Joshua Malidzo Nyawa @joshuamalidzo]

The annexures to the Habeas Corpus Application for Wakili Abshir paints a gruesome picture. They intimidated him for his work by detaining him. Then they resorted to abducting him.
