Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>President William Ruto has assured Kenyans that peace will be restored in the North Rift region, and across the country.<\/p>\n

In a statement after meeting the country’s top security officials, including Interior CS Kithure Kindiki and Principal Secretary Raymond Omollo, Ruto said his administration is determined to bring peace in all parts of the country that are prone to incidents of insecurity.<\/p>\n

“We are determined to restore peace in the North Rift and all other parts of the country that have witnessed disturbance of peace. Received a brief on the security situation in the North Rift in a meeting with Interior and Administration of National Government officials,” the President said.<\/p>\n

The meeting that included Inspector General Japhet Koome, and his two deputies Douglas Kanja and Noor Gabow on Saturday was held in Kilgoris.<\/p>\n

Ruto went on to say that the recently launched security operations in the North Rift region have been largely successful.<\/p>\n

He, however, noted that while this is the case, there have been recent incidences of banditry, which are being handled with additional measures.<\/p>\n

“The security operation in the North Rift has had a significant impact in restoring peace. Recent incidents of cattle rustling and banditry are being handled with new additional measures,” he said.<\/p>\n

The Kenya Kwanza administration has intensified its offensive on banditry across the country, in a mission that is led by CS Kindiki.<\/p>\n

The move to end banditry and cattle rustling has seen a multi-agency approach being employed, with officers from the Kenya Defence Forces, General Service Unit, and Administration Police, as well as Police Reservists working together.<\/p>\n

Last week, Kindiki commissioned the first batch of modern security equipment.<\/p>\n

It included Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs), Mine Resistant Ambush Protected Vehicles (MRAPs) and Armoured Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs).<\/p>\n

Operation Maliza Uhalifu in the North Rift was launched in February 2023, following continuous violent activity by the bandits.<\/p>\n
