Colour as Benson Kibue hands over reins to successor

Outgoing Nairobi Police Commandant Benson Kibue on Monday gave up the reins to his successor Japheth Koome in a colourful ceremony at Vigilance House.

Kibue will now be the Director of Operations of Kenya Police.

During the ceremony, Kibue counted Obama’s visit, President Uhuru Kenyatta’s inauguration and the handling of the Westgate attack among his successes in his tenure as Nairobi police commandant.
