Police not main solution to insecurity

For a long time, the public and the Government have put the police force under performance pressure due to the rising insecurity in the country.  I agree that police have a vital role in security matters but their efforts can be rendered fruitless due to lack of proper support in their operations.

In this case, support comes from both the Government and the public. It ranges from financial resources and co-operation from wananchi. It is clear that there is not much trust between the public and the police.  It is crucial that cordial relations between these two groups be established. It is also important to note that most of the insecurity arises from the high level of unemployment.
