Speaking when he met security officials in Gatundu North on Saturday, Nkoyo said that team work among security officials will help fight crime and restore law and order across the county.

He said that the national government has provided the required resources in fighting crime.
“We as people mandated by the government to provide security of Kenyans must work together in order to defeat elements of crime,” said Nkoyo.
The commissioner stated that his administration in collaboration with the national government has initiated proper mechanisms to fight crime.
Nkoyo further asked security officials to work with the locals on the ground as they fight crime by sensitizing them on Nyumba Kumi and other security mechanisms being employed by the government.
The commissioner indicated that he is committed towards ensuring security of Kiambu people and rubbished off those accusing him of failing to provide security.
“We need the support of every citizen and even leaders as we strive to provide security to the people,” he reiterated.
On the fight against illicit brew and second generation alcoholic drinks, Nkoyo asked chiefs and their assistants to be on the lookout and deal with people engaging in the illegal trade.
He said that illicit brews must not be allowed back into the county saying that he will personally lead the fight against them.
