Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen came under fire on Wednesday as police officers and national government administrators accused his ministry of neglect and failure to adequately support security operations across the country.

Speaking during a forum in Eldoret, officers painted a grim picture of a demoralised service hampered by poor facilitation, outdated infrastructure, and lack of critical resources to combat rising crime and maintain public order.
