Three new members were officially appointed to the National Police Service Commission (NPSC) for a six-year term, following approval by Parliament.
They had been vetted by Parliament before President William Ruto made the official appointment through a gazette notice.
Peris Muthoni Kimani, Benjamin Juma Imai, and Prof Collette A. Suda were named as commissioners under Article 246(2)(a) of the Constitution and the National Police Service Commission Act
Their appointment was confirmed through a gazette notice dated June 27, 2025.
During their appearance before the National Assembly’s Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Security, the trio committed to spearheading long-overdue police reforms, improving accountability, and rebuilding public trust in law enforcement.
The committee pressed the nominees on their ability to address critical concerns such as extrajudicial killings, enforced disappearances, bribery, and declining public confidence in the police.
