The National Police Service handed over its proposals to the former Chief Justice David Maraga-led National Taskforce on Improvement of the Terms and Conditions of Service and other Reforms of the National Police and Kenya Prisons Service.


On Monday, the Inspector General of Police, Japhet Koome, presented NPS proposals to Maraga during an event held at the Bomas of Kenya in Nairobi.

While addressing the taskforce chaired by Koome, highlighted critical challenges police officers face in the execution of their duties and thus hampering efficient and effective service delivery to the public.

Koome appealed to the taskforce to visit all parts of the country and seek further submissions and views from members of NPS on the ground.
