Law Society of Kenya (LSK) President Nelson Havi has joined Former Chief Justice Dr. Willy Mutunga's quest to bring exiled lawyer Miguna Miguna back to Kenya.
On Wednesday, Ex-CJ Dr Mutunga announced that he’ll soon be travelling to Canada, in a bid to bring the exiled lawyer back to the country on 16 November 2021.
In his statement published by The Elephant on October 20, 2021, Dr. Mutunga condemned the government for disobeying court orders issued in favour of Miguna, adding that the vocal lawyer should be allowed back in the country unconditionally.
In solidarity with Dr Mutunga's plan, Mr Havi announced that he was ready to accompany Dr Mutunga to Canada and bring back Miguna home.

Exiled lawyer Miguna Miguna thanked Dr Mutunga and Havi as he called other Kenyans to join the journey.
"Former CJ Willy Mutunga: Thank you for the decision to travel to Canada and accompany me home on November 16. It's 1,357 days (3 years, 8 months, and 18 days) since I was forcefully exiled. We need genuine freedom. Let them remove the RED ALERTS! I'm ready," Dr Miguna said while responding to the former CJ.

Explaining why he’s decided to take the bold step, Mutunga said: “I have taken this extraordinary step for two fundamental reasons. The first is because of the continued, flagrant and reprehensible defiance of the Government of Kenya, its agencies and senior officials, against the numerous valid court orders in favour of Mr Miguna.
