People who are using police to facilitate their eviction in the National Capital District and Central province are warned to follow the right process to engage police officers if they need police assistance.
The Commander of NCD and Central Provinces, Chief Superintendent Benjamin Turi, had issued a warning to all police officers in his command that no eviction must be carried out by police officers without approval from his office. He directed the NCD Metropolitan Superintendent or Central Provincial Police Commander to assign police units to assist in carrying out evictions.

NCD/Central Commander Turi told both sides of these people who had been fighting amongst themselves that their problem is their problem and it had come to the attention of the police and police will assit them to investigate and apprehend those who are involved in the killing of more than five people.
He said the highway must be free and it must be free always for the travelling public.

Speaking at the launch of the City Warden Initiative, an intervention program spearheaded by the NCD Governor, Acting ACP Turi expressed confidence that the partnership would make a tangible impact. “The RPNGC is committed to working in partnership for safer communities. This strategy, initiated by the Governor and stakeholders, aligns with our mission to fight crime and create a secure city for all,” Turi stated.
