Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has unveiled a raft of sweeping reforms touching on police stations, officer uniforms, and promotion procedures.
Speaking on Thursday during the closing ceremony of the OCS's Consultative Conference at the National Police Leadership Academy in Ngong, Murkomen revealed that funds will be set aside in the next supplementary budget to redesign police stations across the country.
He explained that under the new design, all police stations will be required to house essential facilities, including gender desks, OCS offices, desks for handling child-related incidents, as well as CCTV surveillance systems.
Properly secured armouries will also be part of the new blueprint. "For all new police stations, the specifications should include ICT equipment so that we have fully functional police stations across the country," Murkomen stated.
