The National Police Service (NPS) has indefinitely suspended its nationwide police recruitment exercise, initially scheduled to begin on Friday, October 3, following a conservatory order from the Employment and Labour Relations Court.

• The suspension came after Lady Justice Hellen Wasilwa granted interim orders in a petition filed by former legislator John Harun Mwau.
• The recruitment aimed to enlist 10,000 police officers between October 3 and 9 across all counties.
• The case is slated for a mention on October 21 to confirm compliance and highlight submissions, with the NPS committed to upholding the rule of law.
