The Inspector General of Police, Mr. Douglas Kanja, today, 24 September 2026, joined the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration, Hon. Kipchumba Murkomen, at the Bamburi Cement Grounds in Mombasa to witness the public destruction of a consignment of methamphetamine valued at KSh 8.2 billion, seized in October 2025.
During the exercise, CS Murkomen emphasised that illicit drugs pose an existential threat to the socio-economic fabric of the nation, undermining development and ruining lives.
He affirmed the considerable strength and success of multi-agency collaboration in the war against illicit drugs. The Cabinet Secretary further reiterated the Government's zero-tolerance stance on drug trafficking cartels, manufacturers and financiers.
Speaking at the event, IG Douglas Kanja described the successful seizure and subsequent destruction of the drugs as a resounding victory against criminal enterprises attempting to use Kenya as a transit hub for drugs and narcotics.
He underscored the unwavering commitment of the National Police Service, working alongside other security agencies and international partners, to disrupting networks involved in the manufacture, trafficking and distribution of illicit drugs.
The Inspector General further extended his gratitude to multi-agency partners, state agencies and international development partners, attributing the milestone to robust information sharing, collaboration and mutual strategic support.
The Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI), Mr. Mohamed Amin, assured the public that the police remain on high alert, emphasising that law enforcement agencies will relentlessly monitor, intercept and dismantle criminal syndicates to ensure that Kenya is neither a transit point nor a destination for illicit drug cartels.
