THE NATIONAL POLICE SERVICE AND PARTNERS TO ENHANCE SECURITY DURING APRIL 2022 FESTIVITIES
April will be an event- packed month. Besides the ongoing KCSE examinations and heightened political activities experienced in the country, Muslims and Christians faithful are preparing to usher in the holy month of Ramadhan and Easter Holidays, respectively.
Preparations are also ongoing to host the African Rally Championship (ARC) to be held in Naivasha later in the month. All these activities compound the demand for enhanced security services.
These high-level activities also unfortunately present opportunities to a few criminal elements to plot disruptive activities that may harm the smooth running of organized events and activities.
The National Police Service with its partners within the multiagency framework have taken adequate measures to provide security in all public spaces. Special arrangements have been made to secure major urban areas including all critical infrastructure and places of interest. The security agencies have also enhanced their surveillance and intelligence capabilities against suspicious individuals and organized gangs.
These measures are in line with the mandate of the National Police Service and other security agency partners to safeguard life and property. We shall continue to uphold this role with diligence, patriotism and professionalism to protect our motherland and promote peaceful coexistence.
In the spirit of community policing partnership, the National Police Service appeals to members of the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities or persons to the nearest police officer, police station or through our hotline:999,112, #FichuaKwaDCI or DCI toll free number 0800 722 203.
