Kenya’s Law Society president resigns from protest compensation panel over stalled mandate and legal challenges.
Faith Odhiambo, president of Kenya’s Law Society, has resigned as vice chair of a government panel on protest victim compensation, citing a stalled mandate due to pending legal challenges, including a case set for October 21, 2025.
She emphasized the need to uphold the rule of law and continue advocating for victims of police violence through the LSK, pledging legislative reforms to create a more efficient, victim-centered reparations system.
Her departure follows criticism over a conflict of interest, with former LSK leaders arguing the president lacks constitutional authority to appoint such panels.
Despite stepping down, Odhiambo remains committed to justice and will work with human rights institutions to push for systemic change.
