Editor's Review

“I believe interviewing me for the job would have been impossible for some of the Panel Members."

Lawyer Miguna Miguna has disclosed that he has no regrets after missing out on the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) post shortlist.  

In a statement via Twitter on Saturday, July 22, Miguna said that he knew the outcomes when he applied for the position.

“I am aware that when you apply for something with others, you can get or not get what you sought. So, not having been shortlisted or appointed for the position of DPP was part of the possible outcomes of my application, and I have no regrets for having applied,” said Miguna.

He went on to say that the DPP selection panel will have had a difficult time interviewing him for the position.

“I believe interviewing me for the job would have been impossible for some of the Panel Members. We march on, patriots,” he added. 

Miguna’s remarks come after Solicitor General Shadrack Mose shortlisted 15 individuals who will be interviewed for the DPP position.
