Video: Reprieve as arrested fake Lawyer who won 26 cases gets scholarship

0

Reprieve has come for Brian Mwenda, the young Kenyan man who was arrested after he was found not to be a legal practitioner despite reportedly winning 26 cases in court.

In a video shared on the X handle of Africa Facts Zone, a former Kenyan Governor Mike Sonto announced that he will not only bail Mwenda from custody but ensure that he actualizes his dream of being a lawyer.

Posing as legal practitioner, Brian Mwenda represented litigants in court until his recent arrest.

According to Facts East Africa, Mwenda represented clients in 26 cases before Kenyan Magistrates’ Courts, High Courts, and Court of Appeal, and won all of them.

The report further disclosed that Mwenda so excellently presented himself as a legal professional for a long period, that even judges did not question his competence until his recent arrest.

“Kenyan authorities have arrested a fake lawyer, Brian Mwenda, who has falsely been presenting himself as an Advocate of the high court of Kenya. He argued 26 cases before High Court Judges, Magistrates, and Court of Appeal Judges. He won all the 26 cases before his arrest,” Facts East Africa wrote on X.
In response an X user, Nungua Burnaboy said: “So he won 26 cases against Lawyers who went to the law school but he’s rather being punished?. Those lawyers should rather be punished for letting one who hasn’t attended a law school win cases against them.”

Another user Mfecane added: “Give the man an honorary law degree.”

“M sure he is going to argue himself out of the arrest,” replied user TheTraderInYou.
Another user @_KAKUS: “We’ve so many intelligent people at home who can easily perform at a chosen field without stress. Sadly, those people didn’t get the opportunity to go to school to acquire a certificate and this man right here is a perfect example.”

“He’s uncredentialed, but at 26-0 in major league play, he’s no fake,” wrote The Virginia Project.
