Kenya's interior minister has threatened arrests for anyone attempting to corrupt the police recruitment process set for November 17 across 422 centers nationwide. Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen called on communities to document and report bribery attempts while announcing that selection activities would conclude by 5:00 p.m. to prevent post-evaluation manipulation.
Inspector General Douglas Kanja confirmed that simultaneous hiring operations will proceed in all subcounties, with applicants required to arrive by 8:00 a.m. Candidates must be between 18 and 28 years old, hold Kenyan citizenship, demonstrate minimum height standards of five feet eight inches for males and five feet three inches for females, and achieve at least D-plus grades in secondary examinations, including English or Kiswahili.
The National Police Service emphasized that pregnant women cannot participate during recruitment or training periods. National Youth Service graduates meeting qualifications receive preference, and completed application forms along with original documents must be presented at designated venues.
