The Ministry of Interior has launched a fresh batch of Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) Standard Duty Vehicles as the government continues to upscale efforts to get modernised equipment to bolster security, particularly at the borders.
Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen commissioned the new super machines at GSU Headquarters in Ruaraka on Thursday, March 6, saying the vehicles were part of the government's modernisation agenda.
According to the CS, the modernisation program which began last year has led to a huge drop of criminal activity, particularly in the northern parts of the country, which have grappled with the issue of banditry.
Images obtained by Kenyans.co.ke show the extent of sophistication of the armoured vehicles, which boast a number of unique features.
