The living conditions of police officers must be improved for them to effectively protect lives and property, MPs have said. “Like here in Mbaraki, we find that the status is very bad and it looks like there has been no maintenance,” committee chair Paul Koinange (Kiambaa) said. He spoke after inspecting the Mbaraki police station in Mombasa, where the committee saw dilapidated houses, bushy compounds, blocked sewers and cracked walls. Koinange noted that the committee will ensure the houses are improved as soon as possible. He said Mombasa, for example, is a place where more police vehicles are needed because of increased population.
