The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) scooped four prestigious awards during the 7th edition of the Annual National Diversity and Inclusion Awards and Recognition (DIAR) Gala Dinner and Award Ceremony 2025.
The event took place at Sarit Expo Centre, Westlands, in Nairobi.
The ODPP won the Best Statutory Commission and Authority on Ethnic Representation category, first runners-up in the Best Statutory Commission and Authority on Equitable Allocation of Opportunities and Resources category, second runners-up in the Best Statutory Commission and Authority on PWD Representation category.
It was a finalist in the Best Statutory Commission and Authority on Good Governance, Transparency, and Accountability category.
The awards, which included a trophy, and three framed certificates of recognition were received by the acting Secretary Public Prosecutions Alloys Kemo.
Kemo reaffirmed the office’s commitment to ensuring inclusivity and non-discrimination, particularly in the recruitment of staff.
He defined ODPP as an equal employer that is guided by the rule of law in all its processes.
The DIAR Awards ceremony honoured and recognized State Corporations, County Governments, NGOs, Corporate Companies and individuals making significant contributions as investors in people, planet guardians, and champions of prosperity for posterity.
The awards are based on internal and external research as well as reviews of the latest publicly available reports, including the Status of Compliance of the Public Service with Values and Principles in Article 10 and 232 of the Constitution by the Public Service Commission.
The award comes just a year after the DPP was elected president of the Africa Prosecutors Association (APA) in Morocco, and two months after receiving the Chief of the Order of the Burning Spear (CBS) award from President William Ruto at State House, Nairobi, and a week after he came second in the CEO of the Year category at the Digital Transformation Public Sector Awards 2025 in Mombasa.
