The Director of Public Prosecution Noordin Haji has said that he is not worried about the many petitions pushing for his ouster.
Haji said that he is not shaken because that has been the case with his predecessors, who even faced more petitions.
He added that he has not failed on matters of integrity as alleged by the petitioners saying that he will defend himself to the end.
“I have four petitions tabled to have me removed from office. My predecessors had over ten, so it’s okay. They can keep bringing the petitions and we will deal with them because I am innocent. I have never been involved in graft. That is just being malicious and I will table my evidence and I will challenge the assertions,” he remarked
Speaking in an interview with a local TV station, Haji said that he is ready to leave his job if he would be found guilty of the accusations levelled against him.
“If the President sets up a tribunal and the tribunal finds that I have to leave, I am a man of God and believe that God has better plans for me. If PSC feels that I have to go, I cannot be in this seat forever,” the DPP stated.
He noted that he has a term that is yet to expire but if he is required to leave earlier than that, he would do so without causing any trouble.
“I recognize that, that’s why I have a term and the term will end. Hii kiti sio ya mama yangu. Inaweza kuenda anytime.(This seat is not my mothers’. It can be taken anytime,” Haji noted.
He however said that he will not make accusations in public like those who want him removed from office but will wait until he is presented in court so that he can speak out.
“Like any other Kenyan, I will have my day to answer. It’s not my style to go and shout and make accusations out there. I will answer it in court and at the PSC also,” Haji said.
