Havi's remarks address growing doubts and allegations surrounding Kebaso's qualifications as a lawyer, particularly questioning whether he is truly a qualified advocate as he claims to be.
Over the past few weeks, Kebaso has gained attention for his outspoken criticism of the Ruto administration, leading to intensified scrutiny of his background.
Some individuals, including both members of the legal profession and the general public, have expressed scepticism about his academic credentials, suggesting that he might not be properly qualified to practice law.
However, Nelson Havi, who has a strong reputation in Kenya's legal circles and served as the President of LSK, has taken to social media to dismiss these allegations.
He has expressed his belief that the accusations against Kebaso are baseless and should not be given any serious attention.
In his defence of Kebaso, Havi used the metaphor of "soft-beaked woodpeckers" to describe those making these claims, suggesting that they are insignificant and ineffective in their attempts to discredit Kebaso.
Havi's message was clear and direct. He challenged those questioning Kebaso's qualifications to take their concerns to the appropriate authorities if they truly believe there is a valid issue to be addressed.
Specifically, he advised them to report their doubts to the Law Society of Kenya or the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI). By doing so, Havi implies that if these critics have genuine concerns, there are formal and legitimate channels through which they can be addressed.
"Advocates, laymen and women claiming that Morara Kebaso is a quack or an unqualified person acting as an Advocate are insignificant soft-beaked woodpeckers. If they have a bona fide complaint, let them report to LSK or DCI. The fear market is abolished as was the slave trade," Havi posted on his X account (formerly Twitter).
Kebaso, on the other hand, has not publicly addressed these claims in detail, choosing instead to remain focused on his critiques of the government.
