Kenya Police

Police have launched a new strategy to prevent traffic congestion on the Nairobi-Nakuru highway this Christmas Eve. Officers are deployed every three kilometers in notorious sections like Kimende and Kinungi, aiming to enforce rules and prevent overlapping. This initiative follows years of severe festive season gridlock, though PSV operators are facing challenges with fare hikes and route changes due to strict enforcement.

Inspector General Douglas Kanja presided over the launch of the Basic Recruit Training Course on Tuesday. The ceremony took place at the National Police College’s Main Campus in Kiganjo. This initiation represents a significant development for the National Police Service (NPS) following an extended hiatus attributed to various legal challenges.
