Elgeyo Marakwet County Senator Kipchumba Murkomen on February 11 treated Twitter followers to a show when he engaged City Lawyer Nelson Havi into an exchange. The two got into the disagreement after the Senator who doubles up as Senate Majority Leader questioned the candidacy of the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) leadership.
Mr. Murkomen suggested that there seem to be unwritten laws that ensure only male participants vie for the presidency. “There is an emerging unwritten rule that seems to suggest that LSK Presidency is for men and the Vice Presidency for women. How else can you explain the fact that we have no female candidates for Presidency and male candidates for Vice Presidency?” he tweeted.
