President Uhuru Kenyatta has sent a message of condolence to the family, relatives, and friends of former Police Commissioner Duncan Wachira who passed on early Wednesday morning at his Nairobi home. In his message of comfort on Wednesday, the President remembered the former police boss as a true servant of the nation and a patriot who was committed to the wellbeing of the country. "Wachira is also remembered for his no-nonsense approach to the fight against crime especially in Nairobi." Uhuru said It is during his time as the top cop, that many organised criminal syndicates were dismantled. Wachira served as the commissioner of the police between 1996 and 1998 when many say he steered a number of reforms in the then Kenya police force.
