    "content": "Comparative figures for Nairobi area covering similar period in 2007, 2008 and 2009 indicate a considerable decline in crime. This has been possible due to the measures that the Government has put in place, and which include the following:- Revitalizing community policing and formation, reactivation of the DCPs Committees through the National Steering Committee on the Peace Building and Conflict Management. We are also intensifying Peace Building and Conflict Management Initiatives and deployment of more police officers in the streets of our major cities. We have installed CCTV cameras in a few of the streets in Nairobi, street lighting has been undertaken by the Nairobi City Council in collaboration with the Central Business District Community, intensify intelligence led policy, enhancements of capacity for security agents through provisions of vehicles and modern equipment and opening up of additional security establishments. In addition, arrangements are at an advanced stage to commence recovery of arms illegally held by communities and individuals in the North Rift and the Upper Eastern where we are facing many problems. With the ongoing police reforms, aimed at transforming the Police Department into professional, efficient and accountable police service that can be trusted as an institution of peace and social economic development, I am optimistic that we will secure the country. Finally, I wish to confirm that the Ministry will strive to ensure that Kenyans live in a safe and secure environment as envisioned in Vision 2030."
