Mr Sungusia made the pledge at the Arusha International Conference Centre (AICC) after he was declared winner of the presidential race. He won overwhelmingly, garnering 748 votes against his competitor advocate Reginald Shirima who managed only 77 votes. A total of 825 votes were cast during the elections of the top leadership of the premier bar association with none spoilt. Mr Sungusia took over from Prof Edward Hoseah, who served as TLS President for the mandatory two years from 2021. He said fake advocates who continue to operate were tarnishing the image of the legal profession, hitherto generally respected.
