The Law Society of Kenya (LSK) has planned a nationwide boycott of court proceedings scheduled for July 22, 2026, sparking concerns about access to justice. The Kenyan Judiciary has rejected this boycott, confirming all courts will remain open and operational on that date, viewing the action as inappropriate and harmful to litigants. Senior Counsel Ahmednasir Abdullahi has sparked fresh debate by claiming Kenyan judges sit for only 54 days a year, amid ongoing protests by lawyers over judicial inefficiency. The Judiciary maintains that the boycott would unfairly impact litigants who need timely resolution of their cases.
