Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja has issued firm orders to all county commanders across the country in a bid to tackle the worrying cases of corruption within the police force.
Going forward, county commanders will be required to form corruption-prevention committees to probe graft cases involving police officers.
While speaking during a high-level meeting with senior commanders on Thursday, June 5, Kanja made it clear that, going forward, commanders would be held personally responsible for any form of corruption which occurs under their watch.
The IG further explained that the move was necessitated by the need to restore integrity in the police service, which he acknowledged was grappling with ethical concerns.
