1. A police housing project on course
2. Police Insurance in place come July.
3. A massive police communication system being set up by Safaricom.
4. Police Stations being supplied with vehicles. Some county governments too have come to their rescue on vehicles issue.
5. Police salaries and allowances have been improved, albeit slightly as they had been promised.
6. More police recruited. About 7000 this year.
If this trend continues, then things might be better for their welfare. They should also "pay back" by offering better services.
On that matter, I hope they'll consider both Life Insurance as well as medical insurance. I once had to follow up some payments at the ministry of labor and noticed at the time, most of the claims for payment/compensation under the then workmen's compensation policy came from policemen for various reasons such as getting shot while on duty, etc. Seeing some of them struggle to follow their compensation I couldn't help but wonder: Is this the best the best this country can do for the men and women who put their lives on the line for us?
Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
