Voltage, You just claim fake news that Kenya hired 8 new attorneys, which is Worldly reported news?

This is Kenyan plan B, in my sources, to of new advocates has dividing maritme dispute judgement experience.

Kenyas plan B is these new advocates to beg the court dividing percent verdict about Somalia 50 Kenya 50 or minimum Somalia 70 percent Kenya 30 percent.
This is all about the new advocates and the Kenyas new plan.

This is straight forward is a case of some one claiming something that does not belong to him, Kenya have no legitimate claim but simply perceives Somalia as a nation in turmoil and thus a soft touch and easy grab

The Legal team representing Somalia is one of the most prestigious law firms in the world, they have offices in Boston, D.C, New York, London and Paris among other places. We are in good hands, this 'turmoil' is nothing but the growing pains of instilling law and order.

Somalia's legal team is being led by very experienced attorneys, chief among them being two Harvard Law Grads that are partners in their firm. This case is going to be a win since there is legal precedence on our side. Even kenyan policymakers admit to this openly on their national networks.
