I'm a South African Law student and law enthusiast, I'm really impressed by the lawyer, Adv Omollo. And the Kenyan legal system is similar to ours here.#AfricanExcellence
Wonderful articulation of facts by Adv. Amollo. The stupidity & irrationality of submissions & arguments by the respondents is unbelievable to anyone with a modicum of legal knowledge. The chair of the electoral commission exhibited shameful incompetence. I'm not surprised how he got his job.
👏✊ Former ombudsman man n mp otiende Amollo excellent performance in this presidential petition n BBI petition 'clear articulation of law, submissions,v.eloquent,wise n smart',my thought taking over from our walking constitution (to back sit advisory) bright future ahead🧨 proud to be kenyan law country ranking high 👍💪🇰🇪🕊️🙏
"what was the hurry "?The same thing happened in the 2020 elections just that in this case,the ruling party manged to win the case.I admire this man so much
it was expected decenting views by njoki ndungu thick tribal tendency as alway and ojwang for defending his wifes job(ps) who was rewarded by uhuru after 2013 petition win.
No I disagree Prof Lumumba is a lawyer he is forced to say something on behalf of his client. and he knows very well that not all cases are winnable for me he did enough to earn his pay cheque.
The kenyans hate professor lumumba because he is not corrupt ,tribalist ,they hate him because africa and africans love him he is not a lier africans and africa love him because he is truthful and he stand for africa and africans long life professor
IEBC Lawyers failed to explain the ~500,000 variance between the presidential vote and the other seats in the 6 ballots. The IEBC had offered a pretty good argument yesterday. But today Ngatia made a complete hash of it. It's laughable even when you come to think of it and the likely implications!
As agood citizen of kenya soil plz give hon raila the sit of the presidential he ask kenyans that he need to say bye to kenyans after he is one of the freedom fighters of kenya why should kenyans deny the rights of one another while the inocency is on his face the only president denies corruption is president Amolo odinga ding
PLO Lumumba is all empty rhetoric, but he's actually not a good lawyer! He's better in the classroom and plagiarising other people's work. Shame on him!
The man hoodwinks audiences with empty theatrical speeches about democracy and accountability while we know he piously defended dictator Moi throughout the dark days of nyayo despotism.....
I hope this went into Kenya's law books as a case study. Fascinating at best. And after all this, a boycott, and then a handshake. What an anticlimax. They couldn't open the servers to public scrutiny, because someone tinkered. End of story
This guy is far ahead of Lumumba,Lumumba made no sense he just dwelt on mistakes and lacked merit,Lumumba must come to Zimbabwe and get lectures from L Madhuku
All the negetive comment about professor lumumba are jealousy good english and a good points for that matter ,i can see all you peoples commenting here don't understand his language so there for u can't know what he is saying go and learn english is better ☻☻☻☻
The positive and truthful man in kenya is prof.. lumumba kenyans peoples hate him because he is truthful they hate him because he is not tribalist they hate him because he is not corrupt they hate him because he stand for africa and africans they hate him because his knowledge they hate him because how africans love him ,the pan african and patriotic african citizen for that matter long life to you professor lumumba
I lost respect for that PLO guy after this case. He well knew the elections were rigged, but deliberately chose to defend the IEBC. He chose the fat cheque at the expense of justice. It only proved he is not different from the despots he was representing. So hypocritical. It wasn't a surprise they terribly lost the case ...
Like many others,PLO was an iebc lawyer engaged to defend his client..The spirit that guides real lawyers in a court room is the experience in law practice, acquired knowledge in school and of course inborn wisdom (solomonic wisdom). I don't think there was any lawyer/ judge chasing money in this particular case. Both counsels articulated matters law and facts for the court to determine. If iebc is never defended by strong brilliant legal minds, the likes of PLO, Githu muigai and many others, every presidential election would always be nullified. The scok judges are equally highly intelligent to separate wheat from chaff on listening to representations. The right of the people to vote can't be left to scok judges. That would be very grave. General Election is a process and not an event.
PLO would do well to become a church pastor and a motivational speaker. By that I am not saying being a preacher and motivational speaker is a lesser calling. Nope. All I am saying is that he is not a good lawyer. I find him very adequate when he fills the position of a preacher and motivational speaker.
As a matter of fact, PLO addressed the legal issues in a way to persuade the court to agree with him. He cited legal authorities, and showed that the petitioners did not prove their case. This counsel to the petitioner is simply pointing out the errors of the electoral commission. By the way he is saying it is probable he did not prove his case as alleged by PLO. While stating the inconsistency in the forms, I was expecting him to cite the consequences of the inconsistencies, but he failed to do that. Even if the electoral statute did not provide for the consequence, he should have persuaded the court, using other relevant cases to call for the cancellation of the result. Based on their presentation, PLO spoke law, the petitioner's counsel merely recited facts. Meanwhile in the court rules, the reply is meant to address legal points and not facts. What he ought to do is to debunk the legal authorities of PLO and not mere recital of facts.
Jubilee leadership made a gravious error by repeatedly tapping the less colourful in every nomination thinking they were easy to manipulate ,case in point IEBC, security minister Ole Lenku , kiunjuri , munya , kambi , echesa, mcheru , supreme court judges , KRA boss , DPP
Desire Muchenugwa. Yes, he might be a good lawyer but the problem with him is that he tries to masquerade as a civil rights champion fighting for truth and justice while he has clearly demonstrated that he works for the highest bidder and accepts blood money at the expense of the of the weak and marginalized. He cannot be a Martin Luther King, Jr. and turn a blind eye or a deaf ear to injustice at the same time! It is MLK who said, "Injustice somewhere is injustice everywhere."
Professor Lumumba should know that regression analysis shows that data is not random. Pythagorus theory is to show the sides of a triangle. I respect him but these are serious things he should never bring in ignorance, stupidity, or worse jokes. Otiende 💪🏾
This guy amollo is a great legal mind however all counsels are contracted to win cases on behalf of their clients. Petition was a display of Shar p legal minds versus the ------ Both counsels strongly represented their clients but iebc had alot of careless mistakes that badly held the hands of their defence counsel if a predetermined verdict is not what won the day.
