Ringtone Apoko's lawyer breaks down in tears at Kibera Law Courts

Singer Ringtone and his lawyer Evans Ondiek. 

Controversial singer Alex Apoko aka Ringtone Apoko, and his lawyer Evans Ondiek expressed their disappointment after their hearing with Blogger Robert Alai was postponed. Without holding back his emotions, Apoko's Lawyer, who is physically disabled, admitted that making his way to Kibera Law Courts was not easy, and a simple email notifying them that Alai that his lawyer wouldn't be present would have gone a long way.

"Unfortunately, the counsel for the accused wasn't present and he should have been courteous enough to tell us even in an email that he was not available to come because coming here wasn't easy and the key witness on our part was ready to testify but it has been adjourned to on June 23," said Ondiek.
