Senior Counsel Ahmednassir Abdullahi has blasted Attoney General Paul Kihara Kariuki.
In a tweet on Saturday morning, the renowned lawyer noted that the AG is always silent over certain issues that affect the country.
''In justice Kihara, Kenya has an Attorney General who does not talk, speak, comment, has no view or opinion on any issue in Kenya whether legal, constitutional, societal, politics, financial etc...I am not saying he is DEAF and DUMB...but many Kenyans think he is close,'' said Ahmednassir Abdullahi.
Kihara was nominated by President Uhuru Kenyatta in February 2018, and approved by the National Assembly on March 2018.
According to Article 156 of the Constitution of Kenya (2010), the AG is the Principal Legal Adviser to the Government.
He is mandated with ensuring that the law is promoted, protected, upheld and defended.
Moreso, the AG is supposed to advise government ministries and departments on legal matters.
However, Ahmednassir noted that Kihara has been silent, and has never come out speak on any of these matters, or advise or correct any governmental body that has made a mistake.
Ahmednassir's sentiments comes at a time the judiciary has been faulted by Kenyans over lack of good services.
The AG is also tasked with formulating legal policies that ensure proper administration of Kenya's judiciary system.
