It went on to say, “The visit was an official seal of endorsement indicating that the Dutch Government has confidence in Kenya’s corrupt and fraudulent Judiciary, an insult to their long history of seeking a Judiciary free from corruption and inefficiency, and a betrayal to Kenya’s hard-working people.”

During the conference involving the two royals and Chief Justice Koome, the latter underscored the significant topics of discussion, primarily focusing on judicial independence and the necessity to safeguard the courts from external pressures.

Nevertheless, the two lawyers dismissed the meeting, accusing the royals of neglecting the challenges afflicting the Judiciary in favor of diplomatic formalities and photographic opportunities.

Havi has recently led a team of city lawyers in demanding the resignation of Chief Justice Koome and the other Supreme Court judges. He submitted a petition to the Judiciary Service Commission (JSC) in January 2025 asking for the dismissal of all seven Supreme Court justices.

In the petition, Havi requested that the JSC instruct President William Ruto to establish a tribunal and initiate the process of sacking the seven, accusing them of gross misconduct and unbecoming conduct among other matters.
