In this controversial episode of Wakili Talks, we dive into one of Kenya’s most debated legal battles — Republic v. Julius Kitsao Manyeso. The Supreme Court reinstated a life sentence for defilement after overturning a Court of Appeal decision that reduced it to 40 years. But why all the fuss?

We unpack the legal drama, the fight over mandatory sentencing, and whether courts or Parliament should define what “life imprisonment” really means. It’s a case that touches justice, constitutionality, and child protection. No legal jargon—just sharp analysis, Kenyan-style banter, and a few laughs. #KenyaLaw #SupremeCourtKE #WakiliTalks
