According to Havi, securing major rulings against the government, stopping BBI and pushing an advisory for dissolution of Parliament were some of the major achievements by LSK under his leadership.
“With over 20 Judgments against Government, advisory for dissolution of Parliament and stop of BBI we have done enough,” he added.
While the LSK boss highlighted some of the key achievements, it also worth noting that under his reign, the society had some low moments including in-house battles over the leadership of the society council.
One key issue of concern has been the holder of the position of LSK CEO, with rival parties from the society, clashing on who should occupy the seat.
The matter is currently in court, awaiting determination.
Havi was elected LSK president on February 28, 2020 after trouncing Charles Kanjama, Harriet Chaggai and Maria Mbeneka.
His term is expected to end in March 2022.
Meanwhile, Havi has already declared that he will be contesting for the Westlands Parliamentary seat in the 2022 General Election.
