Miguna Miguna Joins the Race to Become Kenya’s Next DPP
Attorney Miguna Miguna has announced that he has submitted an application to become the next Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) of Kenya.
Miguna’s announcement comes after the position became vacant following the appointment of Noordin Haji as the Director General of the National Intelligence Service.
A seven-person selection committee has been formed to find the next DPP, and applications are due on Wednesday, July 12.
In addition to Miguna, other lawyers who have expressed interest in the position include Cliff Ombeta, Kioko Kilokumi Katwa Kigen, and Danstan Omari.
The DPP is responsible for prosecuting criminal cases in Kenya, and the position is seen as one of the most important in the country’s legal system.
Miguna is a controversial figure, and his candidacy is likely to be met with mixed reactions. However, he is a highly qualified lawyer with a wealth of experience, and he could be a strong contender for the position.
The selection committee will be looking for a candidate who has the integrity, experience, and skills necessary to lead the DPP’s office. Miguna will need to convince the committee that he is the best person for the job.
The appointment of the next DPP is a critical decision, and it will be interesting to see who is chosen for the position.
