Ombeta Vs. Wajakoyah

Lawyers representing the deported Akasha sons and two foreigners who are facing drug trafficking charges in the US engaged in a war of words Thursday over who has the right to speak for them, while accusing the government of violating the law.

A scuffle ensued at a Nairobi hotel when the Prof George Wajackoyah and Cliff Ombeta traded accusations over the deportations of Baktash and Ibrahim Akasha plus the two foreigners.

Prof Wajackoyah who served as counsel for Gulam Hussein, a Pakistani national who was deported alongside Baktash, Ibrahim and Vijaygiri Goswami – blamed Ombeta, who represented the Akasha’s for working towards the collapse of the case, prompting a heated debate between the two.

[B]“I am not trying to do what he (Ombeta) does as usual – seeking publicity,” Wajackoyah charged amid a heated exchange. “My friend is a publicity seeker and he’s probably the person who brought this case down.”

“Jealous for you Prof? Jealous for who? You cannot even address a court properly that is why you were fired from this case,” Ombeta retorted.[/B]

Ombeta, who left proceedings in a Nairobi court on hearing Wajackoyah was set to address the press on the deportation of the Akasha’s, told off Wajackoyah saying he had no right to speak on the matter since the Akasha family terminated his services on January 25.

At some point, Ombeta even placed a call to a sister of Baktash and Ibrahim, who was heard telling him to stop Wajackoyah from addressing the press on the deportation of the two.

“Stop the professor (Wajackoyah) , stop him now!” she ordered!

Wajackoyah however dismissed the claims saying he was not representing the interests of the Akasha’s despite having earlier alluded to unpaid dues by the family.

With the two fat boys in New York, there is no man left in the Akasha household. That means that Ombeta and/or Wajakoyah can control the situation for maximum profit. How will the widow know whether a bill has been paid or is padded? Assets will have to be disposed of before the DEA gets there, and income has to be managed.

These two ‘lawyers’ are fighting for spoils.

Are there chances of Cliff representing them through the cases?

I like the US justice system. After conviction they reclaim all the proceeds of your crime. Hapa unaiba alafu ukimaliza term unarudi kuambia mwili pole.

Probably not, unless he is US trained and accredited.

Halafu his bag of tricks (procedural motions, fake sick-notes, media circus) would not work in NY. He’d look like Miguna.

nope, unless he is certified to practise law in NY assuming the trial will be held in NY. Exam ya NY huwa ngumu kushinda ya States zote hata Hillary Clinton failed it. USA si kama Kenya where ukishamalizana na Kenya school of Law na CJ admits you to the bar unaweza practice law anywhere. Huko lazima usomee exams za every state you want to practise in before uwe certified to practice in that state.
