Sharp divisions have emerged at the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) following a decision by the society's council to overrule a committee’s verdict on two candidates eyeing a Judicial Service Commission (JSC) slot.
The council is said to have gone against the nomination committee’s report forwarded to it on February 11 that disqualified lawyers Gathii Irungu and Tom Ojienda from contesting for LSK’s male slot in the JSC.
