Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>President William Ruto has emphasised that the police force must move swiftly and ensure that criminals have no place in Kenya. Speaking on Thursday, he said his government will no longer be putting criminals on notice.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe shall no longer follow the tradition of putting cattle rustlers, bandits and other criminals on notice. Instead, we will move resolutely and systematically take measures to make our presence, intent and capability evident for all to see,\u201d Ruto said.<\/p>\n

The Head of State stated that the interests of Kenyans are not to be infringed on without serious consequences. \u201cI repeat that the rights, freedoms, lives and livelihoods of the citizens of this Republic shall not be interfered with without a robust and effective response,\u201d Ruto said.<\/p>\n

Earlier, the president assured the police service of tools to fight modern crimes. Ruto committed that the recommendations by a taskforce appointed to look into the welfare of security officers would guide reforms in the service.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Wednesday during the graduation of 1,995 Administration Police officers, the President reiterated his pledge to provide good housing. The President said the government has enhanced coordination between various agencies in resolving crime and security threats.<\/p>\n

This also included deepening the collaboration between the police service and communities. \u201cYou should have no difficulty whatsoever in meeting them, by serving them with discipline, dignity, courage, firmness and fairness,\u201d Ruto said.<\/p>\n
