Kikuyu police will soon have a reason to smile after Kiambu Roads and Infrastructure CeC Njeri Gatabaki promised to expedite the implementation of the construction of police houses in the region.
Gatabaki said that he will partner with the county government to ensure the region is fully equipped with police resources and security is beefed up.
The kikuyu police have been having a very poor housing that was constructed long time ago and thus acted as an embarrassment to the Kiambu county according to the CeC.
The CeC who was speaking on Tuesday in Kikuyu town during the launching of the new bus park in the town said that the construction will go hand in hand with the upgrading of the Kikuyu police station to be equipped with resources that will help boost security in the region.
“The police house construction will start immediately and I will make sure it goes hand in hand with the upgrading of the police post in this region,” said the CeC
Meanwhile the Kikuyu ward MCA Francis Wainaina who was in the same meeting lauded the CeC for remembering his ward in establishing and upgrading of the bus park and police station which he says the crimes and drug abuse which has become in rampant will be reduced.
Wainaina said that he is working towards achieving the goals set in his campaign and thus urged the residents to remain calm and not to be incited by politicians who have malicious intention.
The MCA extended his gratitude to the county governor William Kabogo for consistent support to the ward terming him as a good leader.
The Kikuyu ward have been operating with a poor police post and residents have been complaining of insecurity and decried to the area MP to come to the rescue.
Gatabaki said that the construction will start immediately and the residents to be patience.
