Brian Mwenda, a Kenyan resident, posed as a legal practitioner, and his professionalism went unquestioned by judges until his recent arrest.
As per a report by Facts East
Africa, Mwenda managed to represent clients in 26 cases before Kenyan High
Court Judges, Magistrates, and Court of Appeal Judges, achieving victory in all
of them.
As per the report, Mwenda had
successfully portrayed himself as a legal professional for an extended period,
and 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.
A username Nungua Burnaboy
replied, “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 asserted,
“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.
