Shioso promoted to Police AIG, to retain Spokesperson role

NAIVASHA, Kenya, Jun 26 — Police Spokesperson Bruno Shioso has been promoted to the position of Assistant Inspector General of Police.

Speaking to Capital News on Sunday, Shioso said the promotion is a clear demonstration of the government’s belief in his ability to lead.

He committed to do his best to ensure he performs his role diligently.

“My promotion means everything to me. I am glad the government and Inspector General have confidence in me to contribute towards effective policing outcomes. I am honored to be recognized for my service, and I can only strive to do better in the service to Kenyans,” he said.
