TY - JOUR PY - 2018// TI - Police corruption and the security challenge in Kenya JO - African security A1 - Hope, Kempe Ronald SP - 84 EP - 108 VL - 11 IS - 1 N2 - Police corruption has emerged as a serious security challenge in Kenya. Where police corruption is persistent, it represents a systemic failure of governance in which the principal institutions responsible for ensuring police governance, the observance of ethics and integrity standards, and enforcing the rule of law are compromised and may themselves be infested with corrupt individuals and syndicates. This work discusses and provides an analytical survey of police corruption in Kenya, drawing on the available data to provide a coherent picture and understanding of the problem and its link to, influence on, and implications for national security in the country.
