Spokesman Charles Owino said there are 6,000 and 2,000 male and female officers’ uniforms respectively lying uncollected at the central stores. “Officers who may have not collected their uniforms have been directed to do so immediately,” said Owino. Nairobi regional police boss Rashid Yakub issued the directive in an internal memo which also warned against mixing of the uniforms. “In addition, all officers are cautioned against mixing of uniforms or wearing non uniform items alongside the uniform. The Persian blue uniforms are part of the police reforms that were instituted by President Uhuru Kenyatta in September 2018.
