Wednesday, November 16, 2022 –General Service Unit GSU as well as Rapid Deployment Unit RDU officers will help reinforce security around the city.
A Cabinet resolution paper dated Tuesday November 15 and approved by the members indicated that the GSU and the RDU will help strengthen patrols around Nairobi where lawlessness has been on an increase.
President William Ruto and his cabinet are taking this direction after there was a laud disquiet in the city following a spate of crimes perpetrated by gangs of criminals who stab, rob and kill at will.
“Cabinet sanctioned swift and decisive action to deal with all those perpetrating crimes with the deployment of additional specialized police units drawn from the GSU and RDU,” the Cabinet dispatch read in part.
The cabinet further agreed to pump up security surveillance not just in Nairobi but also in other parts of the country where crime has gone up.
“Cabinet approved the reinstatement of the multi-agency co-ordination between Kenya’s security organs and operators at all points of entry I detect and prevent trafficking in Narcotics and other psychotropic substances,” the statement seen by Homenews.co.ke read in part.
As a lasting solution, Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki, two days ago, announced other changes in Nairobi County Police command where he brought in Adamson Bungei as the new boss.
All criminals have also been given a month to surrender their tools tools of trade.
