The Director of DCI, Mohamed Amin, has urged security agencies in Trans Nzoia County to enhance multi-agency cooperation to combat smuggling and cattle rustling effectively.<\/p>\n
Addressing various venues, including camps, posts, and stations hosting members of the National Police Service, Amin highlighted the infiltration of criminal cartels in the region.<\/p>\n
These cartels are disrupting the operations of the National Cereals & Produce Board (NCPB), hindering government efforts to bolster food security.<\/p>\n
\u201cCriminal cartels operating in this county have penetrated the NCPB, smuggling subsidized fertilizer to neighbouring countries. This undermines our farmers\u2019 productivity and sabotages government-led economic revival initiatives,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n\n
Amin urged security operators and customs officers from the Kenya Revenue Authority to intensify monitoring activities at the Suam border.<\/p>\n
He stressed the importance of enforcing laws governing the movement of goods and people across national borders.<\/p>\n
These statements were made by the DCI Chief during the commencement of his three-day working tour in the North Rift region, representing the Inspector General.<\/p>\n
This visit follows Amin\u2019s assessment of the security situation in the region six weeks prior, aiming to address challenges faced by NPS officers in fulfilling their duties effectively.<\/p>\n
Beginning at the Suam Border Post linking Kenya and Uganda, Amin addressed officers at the Chepchoina GSU Camp, GSU Miti Mbili Camp, Anti-Stock Theft Unit \u2018K\u2019 Coy, and KPS, APS, and DCI officers stationed at Chepchoina and Endebes.<\/p>\n
Accompanying him were Director of Personnel Francis Ndiema, Director of Operations Richard Mwaura, RCIO Rift Valley Charles Mwangi Kanyuira, CCIO Trans Nzoia Francis Githinji Kihara, among others.<\/p>\n
