Kenya should address rising insecurity before it’s too late

I do not intend to sound alarmist but it is obvious that with every passing day, security in this otherwise great country is getting worse. A few days ago, a policeman shot and injured a public service vehicle driver in Eldoret after he allegedly declined to give a bribe.

In Kisumu, it was reported that a police driver received serious injuries after he was assaulted by infuriated boda boda operators. An MP in Nakuru is accused of assaulting a traffic policewoman after an exchange of words. In Nairobi, a policeman is allegedly nursing serious injuries in hospital after a group of youths attacked him and two others before snatching their firearms.
