President Ruto Orders Police to End Muggings and Cattle Rustling

President Ruto has directed police to tackle insecurity in the country, particularly the recent spate of mugging incidences witnessed in Nairobi.

Speaking at State House, Nairobi when he met the new Inspector General of Police Japhet Koome, who took the oath of office on Friday, Ruto said police are well-resourced and independent to execute their mandate. 

“Muggings, cattle rustling or other cases of insecurity must stop,” he said.

The president urged the new Inspector General of Police and the National Police Service Commission (NPSC) to work together, adding that all promotions must be on merit.

“We want a professional police service; the sticky issues of ethnicity, nepotism or cronyism should no longer exist,” he noted.

On his part, the NPSC Chairman Eliud Kinuthia said the changes in the police service were long-overdue. “We commit not to fail our country since we have resources to deliver,” said Kinuthia.
