Police Demand Reforms Beyond New Uniforms - August 2026

Kenyan police officers have begun wearing new uniforms unveiled by President William Ruto at the Kiganjo Police Training College. However, police are calling for significant reforms rather than just new uniforms, emphasizing that superficial changes won't address underlying issues within the National Police Service. A company reportedly awarded the contract to manufacture the new uniforms has raised suspicions due to its registered address. Senate Majority Leader Aaron Cheruiyot has accused the Judiciary of fostering a culture of political goonism by granting lenient bail and bond terms to suspects arrested for politically motivated violence.
