Commissioner General of Prisons Wycliff Ogallo has warned officers against engaging in crime. He said some officers were arrested recently for ferrying bhang, impersonating police officers, reckless shootings, conning and uttering false documents. “This is a clear manifestation of lack of proper supervision from the basic level of corporals to a higher level of duty officers, security officers and officers in charge,” Ogallo added. Sgt Morris Mugambi and warder Stephen Kamau of the Marsabit Prison were arrested on December 27, 2019. In measures aimed at reining in rogue officers, Mutyambai ordered that no police officer would be allowed to retain a firearm while off-duty.
