Overview: Kenya Police Recruitment 2025

1. Government’s Recruitment Plan

  • On September 5, 2025, the National Police Service Commission (NPSC) officially adopted the Recruitment and Appointment Regulations, 2025, paving the way for a major recruitment drive including 10,000 police constables. The recruitment stages—from vacancy advertising to final selection and training—have been laid out in a structured roadmap. (Kenya Times News)

  • Earlier, on August 28, 2025, President William Ruto earmarked the September 2025 recruitment exercise. Notably, he directed that 4,000 of the recruits are to be drawn from National Youth Service (NYS) graduates, aiming to address a shortage of approximately 5,000 police officers and improve the police-to-population ratio. (Kenya Times News)

2. Modernizing the Recruitment Process

  • Inspector General Douglas Kanja announced an important shift to a fully digital recruitment system, eliminating manual queues, reducing fraud, and ensuring transparency. Applicants will submit forms online, monitor application status, and receive updates through a centralized portal; only shortlisted applicants will proceed to in-person evaluations. (Business Today)

3. Clarification on Fake Advertisements

  • On January 29, 2025, the NPS warned the public about fake adverts circulating online that claimed recruitment was starting early February with specified requirements and locations. It emphasized that only official communications via NPSC are valid. (Kenya Times News)
