    "content": "Another issue is that there are Kenyans who are languishing in prison. They may have the right to be released from jail, but because they do not have access to legal aid, they suffer in prison for a long time. This Bill empowers prison officers to create awareness amongst the persons in custody, so that they can access legal aid. The Bill seeks to establish the National Legal Aid Services as a State Corporation. The most critical issue there is that the Bill seeks to establish a national legal aid scheme that is affordable, accessible, sustainable, credible and accountable in order to encourage settlement of disputes by alternative dispute resolution methods. Sometimes lawyers use cases to enrich themselves. They will never tell you even if they know that you are going to lose a case. They will always encourage that you will win. You end up spending a lot of money thinking that you will win. Just because lawyers want to enrich themselves from clients, they make their clients spend all their resources. Some people even sell their land in search of freedom. At the end of the day, the lawyers want to enrich themselves."
