Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinnet yesterday called on officers to always go beyond call of duty to make the country safe.
He said this as he presided over the Manu Chandaria Bravely Awards ceremony of 25 police officers nominated last year. However, one officer was honoured posthumously.
“It is great honour and privilege for us today to join Dr Manu Chandaria as we celebrate the courage and selflessness of police officers, most of whom have gone beyond the ordinary call of duty to register extra-ordinary achievement,” he said.
Ten of the officers were drawn from the Kenya Police Service, 10 from Administration Police Service and five others from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations. Chandaria challenged the officers to always strive and impact positively in their day-to-day duties.
“You have played a key role in changing the society positively. The Manu Chandaria Foundation would like to thank you in a very special way,” he said he handed award certificates to the officers.
The annual award is sponsored by Manu Chandaria Foundation as 15 of the officers were honoured for their successfully operation against al Shabaab.
