A major security crackdown in Narok County is yielding positive results, thanks to a growing partnership between local residents and multi-agency security teams aimed at wiping out illegal weapons.
A joint security team operating in Angata Barrikoi successfully recovered two illegal firearms and a cache of ammunition, which were voluntarily handed over by members of the community.
Local officials hailed the surrender as a significant milestone in the ongoing mission to restore lasting peace, boost public safety, and eliminate illicit arms from the region. Security agencies emphasized that removing these weapons from the streets directly reduces the risk of violent crime, allowing residents to pursue their daily social and economic activities without fear.
The National Police Service (NPS) is urging anyone still in possession of unregistered or illegal firearms to take advantage of the ongoing disarmament exercise. Authorities reiterated that those who voluntarily come forward and hand in weapons at their nearest police station will not face victimization.
“The National Police Service remains committed to sustaining security operations, coordinating with other agencies, and working closely with communities to ensure all residents live in a secure environment built on partnership, trust, and shared responsibility,” the NPS stated.
As the disarmament drive intensifies, authorities are calling on the public to maintain this momentum by remaining vigilant and reporting any suspicious activities to security teams.
