Kenya insists it will deploy hundreds of police officers to Haiti, in the hope that they will help quel criminal gangs and end the gang warfare.

Speaking during an interview with BBC, Foreign Affairs Cabinet Secretary Dr. Alfred Mutua brushed off critics who are against the deployment of 1,000 Kenyan police officers to the peace mission, stating that they have the full support of the Haitians who want the gangs wiped out.
