Most of your security apparatus are still relics of the British system.

NIS - former NSIS/DSI or Special Branch. MI6 in the UK. Original mission was to flash out Mau Mau with GSU brutal emergency police. The morons didn't even bother to switch from the dreaded Nyati House HQ until after the savage Moi dog James Kanyotu retired.

DCI - former CID. British MI5. FBI

Vigilante House  - New Scotland Yard

Recce Corps - former GSU/KPEC. UK SCO19 - US SWAT copycat

AP - the Protection Unit in the UK - US Secret Service copycat

Flying Squad, etc were ad hoc units to hunt down hardcore Wanugu or Matheri. It was formed by Shadrack Kiruki. Eagle Squad aka Kwe Kwe hunted Mungiki under Home CS John Michuki and Maj-Gen Mohamed Hussein Ali.

Generally security units are "reformed" as a mere branding exercise to shed the infamy of torture, graft, bias, etc. This Kinoti move is no different. The "new" unit will probably be redeployed to crash Tanga Tanga midgets. :)

Cobra Squad is a fictional crimebuster by Alfred Mutua's *Golden Dreams Studio*. CSI Machakos - I know Plato fool think it real. :) Kenya needs to develop a proper film hero culture. I think the Tahamaki series of 90s was the closest to James Bond with "Inspekta Sikujua". Duale and  Murconman may mock Dr Mutua but he is a fairly gifted guy by Kenyan standards. At least he utilizes his Media PhD positively unlike someone we all know.

With Uhuru's confusion the recovering institutions will be in very bad shape in the next 20 years to the detriment of common people and all.

I see no confusion. The Flying Squad is being redeployed to deal with Tanga Tanga. Kichwa says Uhuru is going into Moi "siasa mbaya maisha mbaya" attrition SOP. Likes of Sonko and Waititu now: they can't go back to office so their influence is curtailed. They can't support Ruto cause they bail can be revoked, accounts frozen or long jailterms. He has them exactly where he wants them. Even Mandago is scared of backing Ruto.
