The National Police Service (NPS) has dealt a major blow to illegal armed groups in the North Rift.

In a coordinated, intelligence-led operation conducted yesterday, security forces successfully removed 14 rifles and 51 rounds of ammunition from the hands of criminals in Baringo and Turkana counties.

This recovery isn’t just a statistic; it represents 14 fewer weapons available for cattle rustling and highway robberies.

By targeting the tools of the trade, the NPS is effectively disrupting the infrastructure of violence that has plagued these communities for years.

These “sustained operations” are proving that the government is moving from reactive policing to proactive disarmament.
