I have faith in Faith (pun intended) Odhiambo, the new President of the Law Society of Kenya (LSK). I rate her as an independent-minded, public-spirited individual on a mission not only to restore the standing and reputation of the lawyer’s body but also as a person focused and championing broader public causes.
When President William Ruto chose her as a member of the task force on auditing public debt, my reaction and prediction were that this was an appointment that was bound to end up with unintended consequences for the appointing authority.
