Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission chairperson David Oginde has revealed his real motivation for taking up the top job at the anti-graft agency.
Speaking on Tuesday, Oginde said he is also not the EACC boss because he supported one side of the political divide in the country.
The former Presiding Bishop at Christ Is the Answer Ministries (Citam) church, insisted that he was at the EACC because he believes that by doing what is right, Kenya can become a better country than it currently is.
"I am not coming into this because I wanted a job. I am not coming into this because I am leaning on one side or the other. I am driven by the belief that Kenya can be transformed. I am driven by the belief that if we do the right thing, this country can change," he said on Citizen TV on Tuesday night.
Oginde noted that his plan will be to rally Kenyans to help him fight the menace of corruption in the country.
He said Kenyans can work together with the EACC to fight the corrupt.
"I want to rally Kenyans behind the fight against corruption so that we can work towards a transformed nation."
He spoke after the EACC released a status report on corruption investigations across the country.
In the report covering investigations undertaken between January 1, to March 31, EACC said it had forwarded 23 files to the office of the Director of Public Prosecutions in the first quarter of the year.
The anti-graft agency said in the 23, 18 files had been recommended for prosecution, while five were recommended for closure.
