LSK's boycott takes effect Wednesday, with a further targeted boycott to follow. But the real question is rarely asked: has the Judicial Service Commission ever had clear performance targets set for it? I explore that gap in my latest piece. Link below. epaper.peopledaily.digital/h…

Judicial independence was never meant to be a shield against public scrutiny or internal discipline. When the Judicial Service Commission treats oversight like a polite formality and judicial officers confuse security of tenure with absolute immunity, public trust collapses. True accountability requires swift removal of bad actors, transparent disciplinary processes, and judges who answer to the law.

During the Official Launch of Legal Awareness Week on Monday, October 26, ⚖️✨My Heartfelt appreciation to LSK President Kanjama SC @ckanjama , for his leadership in establishing Legal Awareness Week, alongside all the dedicated organizers and justice sector partners whose hard work made this event possible. Access to legal representation is a fundamental constitutional right for every single Kenyan. To make this a reality, I am very critical about the welfare of Lawyers, advocating strongly that the government should make it priority to budget for legal aid. As Senior Counsel Kanjama eloquently emphasized, meeting the social needs of our people is essential, and the government must allocate resources from the taxes paid by Kenyans to build legal infrastructure and support bodies like NLAS. True sustainability means ensuring lawyers being paid for legal aid services so that no advocate is left behind while serving the public. Together, we can strengthen the legal fraternity.

Who will reform the Court of Appeal? ​The Court of Appeal risks institutional paralysis when it fails to honour its own explicit bench undertakings. ​Two weeks ago, we appeared before an appellate bench to argue an urgent stay application under Rule 5(2)(b). Mindful of the catastrophic risk of execution before the substantive ruling reserved for February 2027, the learned Judges gave an unequivocal undertaking to communicate their directions on a temporary conservatory order by the close of business that very day. ​Fourteen days later, silence reigns. Inquiries with the Registrar yield nothing. Meanwhile, on the ground, the subject matter of the dispute is being actively dismantled. ​The purpose of approaching the Court of Appeal under a certificate of urgency is to preserve the substratum of an appeal so justice is not rendered an academic exercise. When a bench retreats into chambers and abandons a bench undertaking while the subject matter is decimated, the court defeats its constitutional mandate under Article 159 to deliver justice without undue delay. ​Who will reform the Court of Appeal? Real reform will not emerge from polite committee meetings. It requires strict administrative accountability from the Judicial Service Commission, disciplined bench management by the Court’s leadership, and an organized, uncompromising Bar that insists on measurable standards and punctuality.

*LEGAL AWARENESS WEEK 2026: BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN PEOPLE AND JUSTICE* Justice is meaningful only when every citizen can understand their rights, access legal support and receive fair treatment under the law. As we mark Legal Awareness Week, let us strengthen the connection between communities and the justice system through public legal education, integrity, accountability and equal access to justice. The law must not remain a privilege for the few, but a shield of protection and a source of hope for all. A just society begins with an informed citizen, a responsible leader and institutions that serve the people. _Caroline Khasoa._

Legal awareness and legal aid are reminders that the legal profession carries a responsibility beyond representing clients. It also means helping people understand their rights and access the justice they deserve. @ckanjama @Ekivuva @OduorACaroline @LawSocietyofKe

Access to justice shouldn't rely solely on advocates volunteering their time. Caroline Khasoa @adkhasoa calls for a properly funded public legal aid system to protect vulnerable Kenyans. Read her powerful proposal here and share your thoughts.
