At least 2,500 officers from Nairobi County inspectorate will join Nairobi Metropolitan Police Unit once it is unveiled, governor Johnson Sakaja has announced.
The directive to form the Unit composed of police officers drawn from the National Police Service and Nairobi County was issued in February by President Ruto during the signing of Cooperation Agreement between the County and National government.
As part of the ongoing preparation, it is stated the officers who will join the unit will first undergo specialised training before deployed.
