Motion to impeach LSK President Havi filed

The Law Society of Kenya (LSK) is set to discuss a motion to impeach President Nelson Havi on December 5, in a special general meeting.

In a five-page document, LSK member Charles Midenga accuses Havi of gross misconduct and contravention of Article 10 of the Constitution of Kenya.

The motion follows a protracted battle between Havi and CEO Mercy Wambua, with the former fighting to have the latter kicked out of office for misuse of power.

On October 19, 2020 the Havi purported to remove from office Ms Wambua despite a majority decision of the Council to the contrary.

In the impeachment notice, Mr Midenga accuses Havi of employing underhand tactics to frustrate the operations of the Secretariat and the Council by ganging up with Carolyne Kamende Daudi, the Vice -Chairperson of the Society.

“Noting that there are currently only three signatories, Ms Carolyne Kamende Daudi, has blatantly refused to sign Cheques thus contributing to negligence and financial probity of members’ funds that has resulted in, for the first time in the history of the Law Society of Kenya, accrued penalties on statutory payments, delayed payments of employees’ salaries at the Secretariat and payment of various service providers,” says Midenga.
