A Group of lawyers from South Sudan have protested the admission of the country’s umbrella body for lawyers, the South Sudan Bar Association (SSBA) into the East Africa Law Society (EALS), saying its members were planted by the government and do not necessarily represent the country's bar.
SSBA joined the regional society on December 1, during its annual general meeting held in Mombasa, Kenya.
