The stage is set for the highly anticipated elections of the Law Society of Kenya, scheduled for February 19, 2026 as campaigns officially come to an end today February 17, closing weeks of intense lobbying and nationwide engagements by candidates seeking to lead the legal fraternity.

Lawyers across the country will head to the polls to elect new leadership, including the President, Vice President and Council Members.

Those seeking the top position of President include Peter Wanyama ,Charles Kanjama and Mwaura Kabata, all of whom have been actively campaigning on reform, accountability and strengthening the voice of the Bar.

With campaigns ending today, candidates are now making their final appeals as members prepare to cast their votes.

All eyes are now on February 19, as the legal fraternity chooses leaders who could shape the Society’s direction heading into a crucial election year for the country.
