Police Acquire Isuzu Vehicles, KRA Powers Challenged, and Cashew Nut Revival Plan Launched - January 2026

Isuzu East Africa has delivered 95 vehicles valued at Sh600 million to the National Police Service (NPS) to significantly boost police mobility and operational capacity across Kenya. Separately, a Kenyan professional has filed a petition in the High Court challenging the Kenya Revenue Authority's (KRA) authority to use agency notices to recover taxes, arguing the practice is unconstitutional. On the economic front, the Kenyan government is initiating a revival plan for the struggling cashew nut industry. This initiative aims to create 350,000 jobs and add Sh30 billion to the GDP. The plan seeks to boost annual production to address declining output that has affected incomes and export earnings.
