To understand Senior Counsel Philip Murgor, one must peel off countless layers of a man who is intensely motivated, devoted to his family and a public servant. You sense a little impatience in him, enough to declare he is no pushover.
The son of former Provincial Commissioner Charles Murgor, by any measure the Lenana School old boy was raised with a silver spoon in his mouth.
But the former DPP would like to be seen as a product of both worlds. He has hobnobbed with the who-is-who in the country, including working for former presidents Daniel arap Moi and Mwai Kibaki, but suggests that he has not lost his common touch. In fact, he maintains an uncommon panache.
