To many Kenyans, the police force is corrupt, brutal and uncivilised. However, one officer is defying this image. Despite his busy schedule, Corporal Sammy Ondimu Ngare, 34, finds time to serve God and reach out to the disadvantaged in society.
“I prayed to God to give me the opportunity to be a police officer. I had a desire to change the way society perceives the police force. I was happy when I was recruited,” said the Administration Police officer attached to the Senate.
After recruitment and training in 2003, he was posted to Marakwet East. Despite the challenges at his first workstation, he did not lose sight of his dream. His first mission was to change the public’s negative image of the police and he used gospel songs to do so.
