Master orator PLO Lumumba once again left many Kenyans talking about his linguistic skills after making a submission at the Supreme Court.
Lumumba, while defending the IEBC from NASA’s petition, used terms that had Kenyans wondering whether he knew what he was saying or was just throwing words out there.
“The pleadings before you suffer from lack of focus and particularity. The test of the election is simple, it doesn’t require Pythagoras theorem,” PLO told the seven-judge bench.

The statement evoked displeasure among many observers, social media users, as well as NASA and Jubilee leaders. Many took to social media to air their displeasure at the PLO.
Professor Makau Mutua said, “Does my friend PLO Lumumba have anything more than the grating Sound + Fury of the English language?”
“Justice is plain spoken not bombastic,” he added.

But Elgeyo Marakwet Senator-elect Kipchumba Murkomen criticised NASA saying “they had 30 advocates and now they hate PLO for descending on them while defending his client.”
Former Budalangi MP Ababu Namwamba said he was proud to associate with Lumumba.
“Proud to have been taught law by this distinguished Kenyan patriot, a fine son of Bondo, Patrick Loch Otieno Lumumba,” he said.
