City Lawyer Cecil Miller has written to France-based Kenyan Nelson Amenya, demanding an apology over defamatory statements posted on his social media platform.

In the demand, Miller wants the columnist and entrepreneur Nelson Amenya to delete the offending statements and apologise to him, for ruining his reputation.

The law firm through lawyer Jared Obare, lawyer Miller says that on August 12, 2025, Amenya published alleged defamatory article titled “Update: Vipindire at KUSCCO”.

He wants Amenya pull down the offending article from his X account or any other social media account, within 12 hours, failure to which he will file suit against him without further reference and at his risk to costs.

“We demand that you immediately tender an equivocal and unconditional apology to our client and publish the said apology to your X account in terms acceptable and approved by our client, “added Lawyer Wena.

The lawyer further wants Amenya to make an offer of quantum of damages as compensation for injury caused to their client’s reputation.

The complained words stated: “…Meanwhile Miller and Company advocates, the law firm handling parts of the KUSCCO saga has siphoned more than Sh 30 Million supposedly for representing KUSCO in dubious cases.

Even more outrageous, simply advertising on the PWC is set to cost KUSCCO Sh 20Million for an entity allegedly Sh 12 billion in the red. This is a financial Comedy,”

Lawyer Miller says the Article and words which were recklessly and maliciously published have damaged his reputation and caused public ridicule, scandal, odium, suspicion and contempt of him by the members of public.

He added that the words are interpreted by the public to mean that his client is dishonest and has siphoned Sh 30 million from KUSCCO in the guise of legal fees for work not done or non-existent work.

He says his client has suffered injury to his reputation and character in the eyes of his peers, professional colleagues and right-thinking members of the public.
