Murkomen Orders Arrest of Camouflage-Impersonators at Political Gatherings - August 2026

Kenya's Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has ordered the arrest of individuals impersonating police officers by wearing camouflage uniforms at political gatherings. President William Ruto has separately ordered the elimination of the term "watchman" from all Kenyan government legal documents and policies, replacing it with "security officer." The NTSA has cracked down on pedestrians, with hundreds arrested for dodging footbridges, and Operation Linda Mwananchi has been deployed to Busia to strengthen public safety. Meanwhile, 122 officers from the State Law Office graduated from specialized counter-terrorism and crime prevention training.
