Narok Senator Ledama Olekina has teased Senior Counsel Ahmednasir Abdullahi over the recent developments between him and the Supreme Court.

Olekina appeared to suggest that Ahmednasir could now join him on his side hustle.

Taking to his X account, Olekina posted a photo of Ahmednasir on a maize plantation. 

However, the photo was taken on January 1, 2024, before the Supreme Court's ban on Ahmednasir.

"Ahmednasir Abdullahi has finally decided to join me on my side hassle now that practising law is limited! I see ‘we’ are about to harvest our silage in two weeks," Olekina said on X.

The Supreme Court on Thursday barred Senior Counsel Ahmednasir Abdallahi and associates of his law firm from making submissions before the court.

In a statement, the apex court said the lawyer has "relentlessly and unabashedly... scandalized and ridiculed" it.

"In view of the foregoing, it is the decision of this Court, that henceforth and from the date of this communication, you shall have no audience before the Court, either by yourself, through an employee of your law firm, or any other person holding brief for you," the statement read in part.

However, Ahmednasir immediately rebuffed the statement signed by Registrar of Supreme Court Letizia Wachira terming the ban "a badge of honour".
