The Kenya Kwanza Alliance has presented a team of 54 barristers to defend President-elect William Ruto’s victory in the August general election.
The list was made public on Friday following the submission of a response to the petition disputing Ruto’s victory, as the Kenya Kwanza’s legal team prepared for a Supreme Court battle.
Ruto’s legal team will be lead by Senior Counsel Fred Ngatia and includes famous lawyers Prof. Kithure Kindiki, Kivutha Kibwana, Kipchumba Murkomen, and Ababu Namwamba.
The list comes just a day after the Azimio la Umoja forwarded names of 41 lawyers who will represent Raila Odinga.
The Azimio list included Siaya Governor James Orengo, Rarieda MP Otiende Amolo, Nyamira Senator Okongo Omogeni, Paul Mwangi among others.
