Lawyer Miguna Miguna has maintained that he is at peace with the panelists' decision after missing out on lost of shortlisted candidates for the Director of Public Prosecution  job. 

In a series of tweets posted on Saturday the outspoken lawyer noted that he was aware, during the application process, that not being shortlisted was a possible outcome.

"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," he stated.

Despite having 3 university degrees and atleast 15 years of service in Law the lawyer did not manage to make it to the list of 15 shortlisted candidates. 

"The minimum academic qualification was one law/university degree. I had three. The second one was at least 15 years of legal practice or experience. I have 28 years of legal practice experience in good standing. 

"The third was clearance certificates from HELB (Higher Education Loans Board), DCI (Directorate of Criminal Investigations), EACC (Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission), and a credit union. I had all of them. Plus three letters of recommendation from solid professionals. I’m focused like a laser beam. 

The Public Service Commission (PSC), which is conducting the hiring process, released the names of shortlisted candidates of which lawyer Danstan Omari was a part of.

Other candidates were Taib Ali Taib, Tabitha Wanyama, David Kiplagat Ruto, Jacob Ondari, James Ndegwa, David Okachi and Renson Ingonga.

Miguna had submitted his application on July 11 seeking to become the next DPP, a position previously held by Noordin Haji who has since been appointed the National Intelligence Service (NIS) Director General.

The firebrand lawyer was among 48 individuals who made the shortlist.

Successful applicants will face the selection panel appointed by President William Ruto beginning August 1.

Notable faces in the selection panel include Central Organization of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary General Francis Atwoli and Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) boss Twalib Abdallah Mbarak.
