The troop of apes in charge of security either suffer from mind numbing stupidity of the kind that can only be the result of a special effort. There are no laws, draconian or otherwise, that can help these people.
Police officers taking part in a security operation in Mandera County have complained of delayed allowances.
A number of officers who spoke to the Nation on Tuesday said they had been forgotten after they were deployed to the county to stem a wave of terrorist attacks that have left scores dead in the region.
The group comprises officers from the administration and regular police units.

So, tell me how they can refuse USD 1K cash from Al Shabaab to let a truck pass through or USD 5K to provide escort through all roadblocks?

Indeed, no amount of enabling laws can outdo the sheer stupidity and incompetence that defines our police force. I wish we could as an experiment invite expat police officers from commonwealth to head our police force for 3 yrs. Something similar to Manitoba power executive who helped turn around KPLC before being kicked out by Kibaki fatcats who were denied contracts. Manitoba managed to connect 150,000 user in a year, something that was unheard of in the inept and corrupt KPLC then.
We need to think out of the box. We need to try out something else. Clearly the system is so broken no amount of fixing will repair it.

recommendation IPOA report after mpeketoni
10.8. Commercialization of Operations
The commercialization of police operations should be addressed and the issue of operational pulse to enable the officers be paid allowances should be discouraged. Payment arrangements can be processed after the operation or when the urgent situation has normalized to avoid distractions. Rather than making cash payments in the field, allowances should be made through electronic transfers directly into officers’ accounts. This will ensure transparency, reduce time spent on logistics in the operation and most importantly ensure that all efforts are focused towards the ongoing security operation.
Kimaiyo was to give a report back to IPOA in 90 days... maybe the only report will be that disbanding IPOA

The issue is that the allowances have not been paid. They can be paid by Mpesa as well.

The real issue is that the allowances have probably been eaten by the "seniors".
