President Uhuru Kenyatta yesterday appointed yet another spy to replace Joseph Boinnet as the Inspector General of Police. Hillary Mutyambai will take charge of the police service if approved by Parliament. The National Intelligence Service, the Kenya Defence Forces and the National Police Service are said to have been lobbying to have one of their own take the police mantle. Mutyambai is the deputy director of Counter-terrorism Coordination at the National Intelligence Service. President Mwai Kibaki sourced him from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (then called the Criminal Investigations Department).
