State to vet security guards in universities, colleges

Following increased cases of insecurity within institutions of higher learning, the government will vet all security guards employed in universities, colleges and national polytechnics.

Further targeted are guards working in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions. The guards will also be trained and licensed by Private Security Regulatory Authority (PRSA), which has invited heads of security from those institutions for sensitisation meeting in Nairobi.
