Wakili, Tuongee! Five days on, our colleague’s whereabouts remain unknown. Every passing day deepens the anguish of his family, friends and colleagues. We demand the safe and speedy return home of Advocate Abshir A. Abdi. Bring him home now! #NoToAbductions #DueProcess #EqualityBeforeTheLaw #FreeAbshir Jacqueline Ingutiah, MBS LSK Representative to JSC

Let us stand in solidarity with our colleague #FreeAbshir
I have watched the video and I am deeply disturbed by the traumatic ordeal our colleague was subjected to. I strongly condemn his abduction and appeal for his immediate, unconditional release. No advocate should face abduction or intimidation for performing professional duties. Representing a client must never make an advocate a target. Such attacks undermine the rule of law. Armed men wearing balaclavas cannot be allowed to move around abducting people with impunity. I urge @DCI_Kenya to act swiftly to secure his safe return and bring those responsible to justice. I stand with Abshir's family and friends during this distressing time. #FreeAbshir

Wakili, do you sometimes rob Peter to pay Paul by using payments from one client to cover expenses on another client’s file? What happens when a client cannot pay, yet their matter still needs your attention? A law firm is a business. How you bill, collect fees and manage each file matters. Join me for Episode 2 of Chamber 10: The Business of Law with TerryAnne Muthoni Managing Partner @simbaadbo as we explore how to build a sustainable legal practice. 🎥 Watch on YouTube: JIngutiah #Chamber10 #WhereLawMeetsLife #TheBusinessOfLaw

Yesterday, I joined my colleagues from the JSC in an engagement with the National Assembly’s Justice and Legal Affairs Committee (JLAC) to advocate for increased funding for the Judiciary and JSC. Over the last four years, sustained engagements have contributed to significant growth in the budget, supporting improved service delivery and access to justice. Key funding priorities were informed by institutional needs and feedback received during public hearings. We presented the previous financial year’s budget performance and outlined priorities for the supplementary budget. I appreciate the continued support of JLAC members, many of whom are fellow advocates, in championing adequate funding for the JSC and judiciary.

How does the JSC handle complaints against judges, judicial officers and staff? Accountability matters, and so does understanding the process. In this video, I address this important question about the Judicial Service Commission’s work. Watch as we bring the conversation closer to you.

From Legal Aid to the Judicial Service Commission: A Journey of Service and Purpose. From my early days in legal aid and human rights advocacy to serving on the Judicial Service Commission, my journey has been shaped by a deep commitment to justice, human dignity and the rule of law. Some experiences never leave you, including the story of a six-year-old girl rescued from forced marriage. Every step of my journey has reinforced one conviction, the law must serve people, especially the most vulnerable. Thank you, @NationAfrica for sharing a glimpse of my journey.

🎥 WAKILI TUONGEE! How does the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) conduct its business? In this episode of *Wakili Tuongee*, we unpack how the JSC operates through its Committees, supported by the Secretariat: and how judicial decisions have clarified the Commission's constitutional mandate, roles and powers. Understanding how the JSC works, including the scope and limits of its powers, is essential for informed engagement and accountability. Watch, learn and share. #WakiliTuongee
