As the country prepares for the September 7 elections, Inspector General of police Hillary Mutyambai has assured Kibra residents of their security.
Published on October 17, 2019, Mr Mutyambai's statement to media houses highlighted the government's commitment to ensuring a safe and peaceful environment during the period.
"We have put in place adequate security measures and deployed special security teams, we call upon all citizens to uphold the rule of law and conduct themselves in a peaceful manner," he said.
He emphasized that the officers will discharge their mandate without fear or favour in strict adherence to the law.
"We are consistently monitoring the security situation and will respond swiftly," he added.
His assurance comes just days after Kibera's Jubilee candidate McDonald Mariga's motorcade was attacked by unknown goons who also injured his supporters.
