Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) chairperson nominee Duncan Ojwang Oburu has pledged to defend the rights of Kenyans and maintain the independence of the police oversight body if approved for the position.
Appearing before the National Assembly Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Security on Wednesday, Dr. Ojwang said his leadership would be guided by courage, accountability and the constitutional obligation to protect citizens from abuse of power.
“I believe I am courageous. I speak truth. Trust me with that responsibility. We will speak truth to power,” he told MPs.
