The government will recognise private security guards as part of the national security forces after it rolled out mass registration that saw them acquire a guard force number (GFN).

Speaking on Saturday during the launch of the registration exercise at Uhuru Park in Nairobi, Nairobi police boss Adamson Bungei said the initiative is a commendable stride in improving security in the city and country.
