Embakasi East MP Babu Owino has today urged the DPP to free the Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu so that she may continue to serve the nation.
The MP says that despite the fact that the matter is in court, he feels that the Director of Public Prosecutions should reconsider his position in this case.
The embattled DCJ troubles began on August 28th 2018 when she was arrested over corruption allegations.
According to Babu Owino, many observers have noted that this war against corruption seems to have taken a political twist and is now tainted with vendetta and personal differences.
He stated that a good example are the trumped up charges against the Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu who is being subjected to vexatious litigation over matters that are clearly civil and not criminal.
“I take cognizance that the matter is before the courts. I urge the Director of Public Prosecutions to reconsider his position and drop this matter to free the DCJ to continue with the good work she is doing for the nation.” reads from his post
Babu Owino also called for sobriety in the so called war on graft in the Judiciary.
