Ahmednasir case
The Supreme Court communicated its decision to ban the senior counsel through a letter signed by Registrar L.M. Wachira in January 2024.
He argued that if the statements made by his client are defamatory, the Supreme judges were at liberty to institute legal proceedings against him.
The firm through advocate Issas Mansour says the decision taken by the seven supreme judges to ban him from appearing before them was not an outcome of a judicial process but rather an administrative decision of the judges of the apex court.
The matter has been listed before Justice Chacha Mwita.
The high court is this morning expected to issue directions in a case in which Senior Counsel Ahmednasir Abdullahi's law firm sued Chief Justice Martha Koome over an indefinite ban.
