"The village elder has a simple saying: if you bend too much before every strong wind, one day you may discover that you have forgotten how to stand. Kenya's lawyers should not be rude. They should not be rebellious for theatre. But neither should they surrender the independence of advocacy in exchange for ceremonial approval. The judge is not God and the advocate a servant. Both are servants of justice."
If you have ever created, managed, inherited or benefited from a trust in Kenya, the law has just changed.
Here are 10 things you should know about the new Trust Administration Act, 2026.
A thread !
@NelsonHavi Some judicial officer are either lazy, incompetent or live on another planet. Public assets have been lost simply because JOs cannot read and fathom "urgency and the common good " in certificates or they are easily compromised. @jsckenya@Kenyajudiciary something is wrong
When you have been recruited into a shadowy unit to kidnap or kill Kenyans extra-judicially, what do you tell your children what you do? Do you sleep well?
If as a Governor or political leader, you pay goons to cause mayhem, burn cars & even kill, how do you sleep at night?
And the shadowy unit members, the goons, the sponsors … When you go on your knees to pray, don’t you think you are mocking God, a God who can’t be mocked?
For the record, there is no time limitation in Kenya for criminal prosecution. One day, everyone will be held to account individually. And that you were forced by a superior person is no longer a criminal defence.
Election period brings out lazy thinking by Kenyans. Some are now saying Jomo Kenyatta forced Del Monte to be built in Thika instead of Kakamega!!!!!
Del Monte was established in Thika in 1948. That time, Kenyatta was a school teacher!
To propagate that Kikuyu Nation marginalized Western Kenya is the new bogeyman even if riddled with falsehoods & ignorance.
Jomo Kenyatta ruled 14 Years!
Daniel Arap Moi ruled 24 Years.
But people only blame 14 Years & not the 24 Years!
Once again, I want to restate that Eng. Eric Mugaa, our Minister for Water, Sanitation& Irrigation maybe the only public servant that will leave public office without having been corrupted! Our donors especially Japan must be proud of him. Every generation gets someone that rises above the common filth. Mugaa, here are your flowers!
@OkiyaOmtatah@KNECKenya One of the richest people in Eastleigh was the boss of KNEC for some years. Examinations are a huge scam of public resources. From fixed deposits of the exam fees to single sourced printing etc
@MRSMuruguu Are illiterate??
Where does representation, oversight and legislation include car wash activities.
Sometimes silence is golden. You have no shame
Political power no matter how powerful is transient. IT ENDS!
The law is transcendental. It cuts across all governments. IT IS PERPETUAL.
Therefore, those political power newbies who have just joined BroadBased Government should chill & humble themselves. Their blatant arrogance even attempting to give orders to the security system is irrational puerile exuberance! It doesn’t last.
@NelsonHavi The precedent sent for LSKs reps in JSC has always been one non renewable term.
Commish Ingutia should not bring a Mobutu/Kaguta Complex here. NO.
You summon goons, invite them to violence, pay them, facilitate them to block roads,burn cars, kill Policemen … And instead of being arrested & charged with Murder & Terrorism, you are busy in Press Conferences calling the same Police you killed to arrest the victims! And the Police like us are just watching helplessly! We live in unreal times.
@SokoAnalyst We need the names of the specific judges who are on a payroll of the banks. That section of the Act has been in our laws since Donde and Mwiraria days.
@Kenyajudiciary has suddenly become very clever
