The Law Society of Kenya has rejected the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill, 2020 and urged Parliament to shoot it down in totality. Led by its President Nelson Havi, the society said the Bill is unconstitutional. Havi said the Bill seeks to overhaul the Constitution by changing the structure of governance through a process that is not inclusive or participatory. "The Bill does not conform and seeks to altar the norm of the Constitution," Havi said when he made a presentation to joint Justice and Legal Affairs Committees of Parliament on Thursday. Olago Aluoch said the submission should be treated as personal views because an AGM was not called to get members' views.
