The government has formed a special unit to lead the war on illicit alcohol, drugs and adulterated ethanol.
Interior and National Administration Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen announced the formation of a national multi-agency team to carry out sting operations across the country during a media briefing ahead of the Jukwaa la Usalam Nyeri chapter.
The CS vowed to ensure continuous crackdowns until the vice is decimated, not only in Central but also in other parts of the country where the establishments are operating with illegal licenses or none.
“We have agreed at the security meeting with the IG and the CEO NACADA that we are going to establish a special multi-agency team that will include KEBS, KRA among other agencies to work together to ensure compliance,” revealed the CS.
He said the Multi-Agency Team will be coordinated from Nairobi, where the regional and county needs support.
“Where we feel the need to reinforce, the national team will be called in to support this issue of alcohol in our country.”
