A valid reason for dismissal does not cure an unfair process.
In Gibran Mwambogho Ruma v Proto Energy Limited, MCELRC Cause No. E591 of 2025 (27th August 2026), the Court held that an employer may have a valid and substantively justified reason for terminating an employee for misconduct, but the termination will nevertheless be procedurally unfair where the employee is not afforded a reasonable opportunity to respond to the formal disciplinary allegations and adequately prepare for the disciplinary hearing, as required by section 41 of the Employment Act.
When is Government making law, and when is it simply implementing it?
For years, Legal Notices have routinely been treated as delegated legislation. The Supreme Court has now drawn a constitutional distinction that could reshape that assumption.
In a landmark judgment, Matindi v National Assembly & 4 Others [2026] KESC 56 (KLR), the Supreme Court held that a Legal Notice issued under delegated statutory authority does not automatically become delegated legislation requiring public participation. The decisive question is its legal character, not its title.
Can a company escape liability merely because one director's signature was forged?
The High Court has answered in the negative.
In Faulu Microfinance Bank Ltd v Nightgale Enterprises Ltd & Another (Commercial Appeal E095 of 2025), the Court held that a forged director's signature does not, by itself, invalidate a loan transaction.
Where a company receives, utilizes, and benefits from loan proceeds, it cannot approbate and reprobate by retaining the benefit while repudiating the corresponding obligations. The company remains bound by the transaction notwithstanding the forgery.
Traditional dispute resolution mechanisms, such as elders' councils (Barazas), community assemblies (Nyumba Kumi), and customary courts (Kangaroo Courts), are deeply rooted in Kenyan culture and customs. They provide a familiar and culturally appropriate forum for resolving disputes, especially in rural and marginalized communities where formal legal institutions maybe distant or unfamiliar-Prof Anyang Nyong’o, County Governor, Kisumu #AJSLaunchKisumu

For context, a couple of minutes before, I’d seen a cop hurl teargas into the Holy Family Basilica parking lot where the medics had set up their tent. Did not make sense to me because I could see protestors at the exit gate of the church, so ideally that tear gas should have been lobbed at them. But this was almost directly towards the tent. I tried making my way round to go see what was happening there, and I saw her coming out of the gate, coughing, headed straight at the cops. Intuition screamed to follow her…and my heart broke with every second of this dialogue.

Lady Justice Nzioka of the High Court of Naivasha sat today ( Sunday)and revised the orders of the lower court. All the 19 children plus 4 other school going youth were released on favourable bail/ bond terms pending hearing and determination of the case. The children were told to ensure that they reported to school early tomorrow morning. We thank the proactive court for sitting on a Sunday morning to ensure the protection of the rights of the children.
I hurt you: I IGNORE
You complain: I IGNORE
You're teargassed: I IGNORE
You die: I IGNORE
I kill your children: I IGNORE
Then when it is too much and you react. I say:
Let me form a committee you tell me what's wrong. Kwani ni nini mbaya?
Welcome to Kenya!

Even though she was wearing a gas mask and helmet, a Luo man told @ArvanitidisCNN she's the most beautiful woman he's ever seen and asked for her number.
I taught her about character development. My brothers are undefeated 😂

In 1960, an Australian man called Bazil Thorne won over $100,000 on the lottery ($3 million today). His images and personal details were published on the front pages of newspapers. Shortly after, his son, Graeme Thorne was kidnapped for ransom.
The kidnapper stated: "I have your boy. I want £25,000 before 5 o’clock this afternoon. I’m not fooling. If I don’t get the money before 5 o’clock, I’ll feed the boy to the sharks."
On Tuesday 16 August, nearly six weeks after the kidnapping, Thorne's body was finally discovered hidden on vacant land.
The subsequent police investigation led to the capture and conviction of his murderer, a Hungarian immigrant named Stephen Bradley.
The trial lasted nine days, and Bradley was sentenced to penal servitude for life, the maximum penalty provided in New South Wales for murder.
This changed anonymity laws for lottery winners in Australia forever.
