Kenya already did this..with COk2010..which make police INDEPENDENT.
Parliament should proceed a summon police chiefs - and ask for all the police assigned to all politicians and their girlfriends.
This is abuse of power by police.
They do this to curry favour from politicians.
It been a well know issue that upto 5,000 police are guarding political elites...not in US secret service kind of way...but providing watchman kind of services.
Judiciary should save kenya by restoring the independent police forces as envisaged in cok2010.
Why do Mps for example need police bodyguards? I doubt anybody is after thier lifes. They are all over in political rallies.
Only those people with executive authority need body guards - PORK, DPORK and Governors..high court judges..etc..and they should not be a whole squad...just enough secret services wearing plain clothes. Aide-de-camp who introduced that nonsense?
The idiot of the Army who stand behind PORK just makes us look Banana Republic. If army colonel must stand behind PORk - let him wear plain clothes - not military uniform - that kind of crap is for military dictatorship.
Then you have police in military jungle guarding banks - make us look very unsafe. Then others guarding Jomo Kenyatta grave like he will wake up one day - bury that grand looter - and allow the public to visit the masoloeum - like any mature democracy.
Yote tisa - Police reforms failed - it remains very corrupt and albastross on kenyans - and COK2010 has all the answers.
They are busy protecting their loot the ordinary guy is not in the picture. These goons can set an example by advocating for and independent police but none has ever done it - reason is it goes against their interest. Behind them is a list tribal supporters.
They can even refuse protection beyond primary residence, but....
