DAILY POST: This is MATIANG’I’s ambitious project worth 40 billion that has shocked the entire country – It has never been done since independence

Monday February 25, 2019 – The Government will spend
at least Ksh40 billion to turn 3,600 chiefs’ camps into modern police stations.

This
is according to Interior Cabinet Secretary, Fred Matiang’i, who noted that the
transformation had already begun.
It
will cost at least Ksh2 million to equip each of the posts with an armoury,
report office and other amenities.
The
refurbished camps will also have a holding cell and will handle all cases
professionally.
According
to reports, most police stations and posts are on private land, thus the
Government will spend a substantial amount in acquiring the parcels.



All
Administration Police Service camps already at chiefs’ offices and those not
near police stations are being transformed into police posts.
“If
a chief needs the police for an operation, the Officer Commanding Police Post
(OCPP) will be on the ground with him,” said Matiang’i.
All
the country’s 1,520 Wards will have police stations manned by an Officer
Commanding Station (OCS), while the current Constituencies will have police
divisions to be served by Sub-County Police Commanders.
