Kenya's Interior leader Murkomen says he'll catch anyone paying for gangs at the coast. He is traveling through Mombasa County right now for a big safety meeting called Jukwaa la Usalama. He praised how well police worked with local chiefs to stop crime groups. The police have already caught hundreds of Panga Boys gang members in recent actions.
Murkomen talked with many people on Monday at the Kenya Maritime place. He met leaders, safety teams, government workers, and peace groups. They all shared ideas about making everyone safer. He promised better pay and chances to move up for chiefs and other officials who help keep order. The government plans to hire 10,000 new police next year to help fight crime across Kenya.
He wants to create new rules that reward police who do great work. But he warned that officers who fail at their jobs will lose them. Murkomen thanked news people for helping spread safety messages. He plans special meetings just for them later. He asked local bosses to help the government stop drug problems among young people in Mombasa.
Many important people joined him, including PSs Raymond Omollo and Belio Kipsang and Senator Mohammed Faki. Murkomen started this big trip on April 7 and will continue until April 12. He visits many counties as part of his Jukwaa la Usalama program. During these seven days, he checks how safe each place feels and talks with many different groups.
This marks his first major country trip since President Ruto made him Interior CS. The visits help build peace and bring communities together against safety problems. He also wants to see how ready these places are for disasters caused by weather changes. Murkomen plans to speak directly with regular people about how well government services work for them.
