Administration Police Training College
Once upon a time, in the distant past of 1902, the Village Headman Ordinance made its grand entrance, setting the stage for what we now fondly know as the Administration Police Service (APS). It wasn't your typical village drama; it was an ordinance designed to bring the natives into the money economy. Tax enforcement, livestock movement control, agriculture regulation—this ordinance had it all, like the ultimate social and economic rulebook.
Fast forward to the 2010 Constitution, and voila! The APS emerges under the spotlight of Article 243. We've been rocking the sustainable growth in service delivery, and making Kenya the safest place is our superhero mission. Protective policing is our game, and we're here to turn APS into the Beyoncé of regional and global police services.
Facing challenges is our daily cardio, but fear not! We're like superheroes in a Marvel movie, inventing new ways to tackle emerging threats—terrorism, drug trafficking, cattle rustling, human trafficking, cybercrime, and the list goes on. We've transformed ourselves through organizational glow-ups like restructuring, ICT compliance, modernization, and jet-setting for continuous training. We're the James Bond of police services, equipped to tackle any mission.
A round of applause to our Government and partners, both local and international, for their never-ending support. We're committed to flexing our capabilities and evolving the service. Currently, we're in the business of protective policing, specializing in units that would make even the Avengers jealous.
1) BORDER POLICE UNIT (BPU): Imagine border security with a touch of glam! BPU is our squad ensuring border safety, scattered across the country like glitter. Highly trained and equipped, they're the superheroes of border protection, dealing with internal and external border challenges. They're our secret weapon against terror groups trying to crash our border party.
2) RAPID DEPLOYMENT UNIT (RDU): When there's a riot, crowd chaos, or community conflicts, who you gonna call? RDU! This elite unit is the SWAT team of APS, specializes in riot control and community peacekeeping. They're the superheroes who swoop in to restore peace to worrying communities.
3) ANTI-STOCK THEFT UNIT (ASTU): Move over, cowboy! ASTU is our rustling busters, dealing with cattle theft issues among pastoralist communities. They even have a horse and dog breeding program – it's like a wild-west showdown, APS style! They've cracked down on stock theft, recovering thousands of stocks and deploying officers like modern cowboys.
4) CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROTECTION UNIT (CIPU): This unit, born in 2016, is like our superhero tech support. They protect and safeguard national government infrastructures and vital installations. Think of them as the guardians of our development dreams, deploying officers down to sub-county levels to offer security.
5) SECURITY OF GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS & VIP PROTECTION UNIT: Dating back to 1977, this unit was the OG protector of government buildings in Nairobi Province. Over the years, it upgraded its name, titles, and superhero status. They've been providing security to government buildings and VIPs, making sure the show goes on without a villainous interruption.
