These are the best Kenyan Police Stations to be locked up in


They say every cloud has a silver lining. And with Kenya Police being ranked as the most corrupt institution in the country year after year, many would expect nothing good to come out of the service.

But alas! Shock on you – the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) has ranked the best police stations in the country in terms of cleanliness, best in detention and community services, among other benchmarks.

And the winner is…

Voi Police Station

The station located in Taita Taveta County was awarded by the IPOA as the cleanest and most orderly. The station was also awarded for having the best detention facility. So if you’re around this station, why not have yourself booked in and be our guinea pig?

Shauri Moyo Police Station

IPOA awarded Shauri Moyo police station in Nairobi as the best police station in community policing. The station beat all the stations in the country in engaging the public in the prevention and the fight against crime. The hope is the collaboration will help bring down crime levels in the area and its environs.

Malindi Police Station

Malindi Police Station in Kilifi County was awarded as the second best police station in community policing and second cleanest and orderly station in the country.

Menengai Police Station

The station situated in Nakuru County was nominated by the public as the third best police station in all the three categories; the best facility in community policing, the best facility in order and cleanliness and the best detention facility in the country.

Rhonda Police Station

The Authority awarded the station located in Nakuru County as the second best detention facility after the Voi Police Station.

Well done!
