Prominent Kenyan Lawyer Ahmed Nasir has offered free legal services to King Kaka after Anne Waiguru threatened to sue him for defamation.

'I said and I repeat..I will give legal representation to against ANYONE who sues him for the lyric .

I'm of the considered view that no one amongst the ruling elites or the masses was defamed.

UGLY, CRASS and LEWD commentaries on soceity are PRIVILEGED.'

That offer saw fellow lawyer Kipchumba Murkomen react saying that people should not be quick to rush to court.

'As public figures we shouldn’t be too eager to rush to court.A few quotes from the Landmark US SC decision of NYT v Sullivan will suffice.1.

”The maintenance of the opportunity for free political discussion ...is a fundamental principle of our constitutional system”Justice Brennan

Below are some of the reactions

@allen_arnold: It's only in Kenya where thieves, murderers, rapists & terrorists will threaten to sue you for calling them what they actually are.
Anne Waiguru you're a thief, economic rapist, economic terrorist & economic murderer. You killed the future of 1000s of youths.
@KidWakanda: It's so shameful that in the 20th century African leaders are not at wake. Come on, lets be serious for a while Who the doesn't know that Waiguru looted resources that were meant for Kenyan youths.
Shame to the Lawyer Firm representing her against King Kaka.

'Waiguru should stop distracting us. We, the people of Kirinyaga, have unfinished business with her. Lazima aende nyumbani together with BBI, Raila Odinga and President Uhuru Kenyatta and all they stand for if they stand for anything.'

@OCTOPIZZO: Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster.
And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you, Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts... perhaps the fear of loss of power.
@ItsJohnMwendaH: Waiguru has done nothing to improve the lives of those that "elected" her in kirinyaga county, poor roads, poverty, no nurses in hospitals all she does is sue sue everyone.
We know money was lost in Nys when she was the head.
