Havi eyes Westands seat, promises to ensure strict oversight of Judiciary

Former Law Society of Kenya (LSK) president Nelson Havi has said he will use Parliament to hold officials accountable and confront corruption, if elected Westlands MP.He warned incompetent judges and advocates that their days were numbered.“I will not stop. Let those judges who are incompetent and corrupt, let those advocates who are incompetent and corrupt fear. And they must fear because I will not stop,” Havi said.Follow The Standard

on WhatsAppHe spoke on Tuesday, when he declared interest in contesting for the Westlands parliamentary seat in the 2027 General Election.The former LSK president revealed plans to quit the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) and seek nomination on another party.Havi unsuccessfully contested for the seat in 2022, losing to incumbent MP Tim Wanyonyi of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM).The former LSK President noted that his previous defeat resulted fromunforeseen circumstancesand the incumbency advantage rather than voter rejection.Havi currently chairs the Retirement Benefits Authority (RBA) until February.He cited his tenure as LSK president as among proof of his ability to drive reform.“An insinuation that the badge of these offices has not yielded fruits or results to the people of Kenya is one that needs to be interrogated on the background of this discussion,” Havi observed.He said he would seek a ticket within the United Opposition framework, noting the Democratic Action Party (DAP) as a possibility, and confirmed he had informed President William Ruto of his decision to leave UDA.Central to his campaign is a pledge to strengthen parliamentary oversight.Havi said he would focus on legislation to create youth employment through vocational training and partnerships with multinational companies operating in Westlands.On the judiciary, he proposed amendments to introduce mechanisms against judges who delay cases.Stay informed.
