A senior traffic police officer based in a Nyanza county has become in a thorn in the flesh to many. The officer, who allegedly rose through the ranks using his elder brother's documents, has been intimidating his juniors and bragging that he is untouchable. The brother in question, we are told, is a county secretary in one of the Rift valley counties. Those in the know claim that the cop is a Form 2 drop out yet in official files at Vigilance House he is a ‘graduate’. He was at one point investigated by sleuths from an investigative agency only to allegedly bribe his way. Cops under his command now want him investigated and, at the very least, transferred immediately before things get bad.

The new proposed bills in the National Assembly have created bad blood among some security agencies where top officials feel that the proposals are part of a scheme to undermine their functions. It is bad that insiders feel they have no blessings of the top leadership but are allegedly works of cartels operating within the corridors of power. They now want the President to wake up and stop the plans, or else he will have nothing to run.
