Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has issued new instructions to police following criticism over comments that were seen as endorsing a 'shoot-to-kill' policy. These remarks were made during a Thanksgiving mass in Meru County, addressing upcoming demonstrations on July 7.

• Officers are now directed to foster coexistence with civilians and maintain peace during protests.
• Kipchumba Murkomen emphasizes that while protests are allowed, they must remain peaceful.
• The government maintains that July 7 will be a normal working day, with public servants required to report to work despite planned protests.
