Despite all its recent best efforts at hiring a new solid legal team from across the world including Israel, which consisted of the following, Kenya has failed to have the guts to face Somalia at the ICJ in Hague, deciding to pull out just a day before the hearing is scheduled to commence:
* Sean Murphy of the George Washington School of Law who served as a legal counselor at the U.S. Embassy in The Hague in the 1990s. The advocate has represented various countries in international courts and tribunals among them Ethiopia, Jordan, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Suriname, and the United States.
* Justice Tullion Treves, a former judge at the International Tribunal of the Law of the Sea. Judge Treves is synonymous with cases dealing with maritime disputes as he handled a similar one pitting Peru against Chile before the international court of justice.
* Phoebe Okowa, a lecturer of International Law at the Queen Mary University in the United Kingdom.
* Prof Laurence Boisson De Chazournes, an international law expert.
* Prof Christian Tams, a professor at Glasgow University, who is from Germany.
* Prof Makane Mbengue, a Senegalese who teaches international law at the University of Geneva (serves as the team coordinator).
* Eran Sthoeger from Israel.
* Coalter Lathrop, President of Sovereign Geographic, serving as legal aid to the team in land and maritime boundary delimitation.
