In a milestone moment for Kenya’s justice sector, Attorney General Dorcas Agik Oduor has officially partnered with leading corporate supporter Bangbet to launch the Mobile Legal Aid Center initiative—an innovative programme designed to bring legal services directly to underserved and remote communities across the country.
The project will debut in Machakos County before being scaled to all 47 counties nationwide.

AG Dorcas Oduor: A Leader Driven by Human Dignity and Service
As Kenya’s first female Attorney General, Dorcas Oduor has repeatedly emphasized that justice must be more than a constitutional promise—it must be an accessible, human-centered reality.
Her vision for the Mobile Legal Aid Center is rooted in compassion:
to ensure that no Kenyan—child, mother, elder, or person with disability—suffers injustice simply because legal help is geographically distant or financially unreachable.
Each mobile unit features:
• Two soundproof consultation booths
• A legal aid and documentation area
• Virtual court hearing facilities
• Solar-powered energy systems
• Wheelchair-accessible infrastructure

“These centers must become places where every Kenyan can be heard,” Oduor has noted in previous statements—reflecting her belief that justice begins with listening.
Her leadership has reshaped the justice conversation: from bureaucracy to empathy, from theory to touchable service.

Bangbet: Turning Corporate Responsibility Into Human Impact
In this groundbreaking initiative, Bangbet stands out as a key private-sector partner whose support goes far beyond symbolic contributions.
Bangbet has directly provided:
• Funding for container acquisition and modification
• Electrical works and solar power installation
• Interior furnishings and ICT equipment
• Support for virtual court infrastructure and public legal education

For Bangbet, this project is not a branding exercise—it is a commitment to making justice accessible to people who need it the most.
The company has stated that its involvement reflects a simple philosophy:
“A stronger society begins with empowered citizens.”

Human Stories at the Heart of the Initiative
The collaboration between AG Dorcas Oduor and Bangbet is anchored not just in infrastructure, but in the human realities the program seeks to transform. The Mobile Legal Aid Centers are expected to unlock life-changing moments:
• A child troubled by family conflict finally finding a safe place to speak.
• A rural mother receiving legal guidance in a land dispute that has kept her awake for months.
• An elderly man in a remote village accessing mediation services without traveling long distances.
These are the stories that AG Oduor hopes to surface—and the kind of impact Bangbet aims to support.
Together, they are turning legal access into something warm, reachable, and human.

A Model of Public–Private Partnership
Following the Machakos pilot, the project will be refined and expanded to all counties, supported by a network of State Counsel, pro bono advocates, paralegal officers, and volunteers.

Observers view the initiative as a significant example of how government leadership and private-sector commitment can combine to solve long-standing social challenges—particularly those affecting ordinary citizens.

Conclusion: Justice With a Human Face
The partnership between Attorney General Dorcas Oduor and Bangbet is redefining what justice delivery can look like in Kenya.
A simple container—transformed, fitted, and sent into the field—now carries hope, dignity, and the assurance that someone is listening.
This is not just a government programme.
It is a promise.
A reminder that:
Justice does not have to be distant, and care can travel.
