(ii) A leaders’ CSIC meeting was held at Mabanga on 5th July, 2013 in Bungoma South District where leaders were prevailed upon to play an active role in sensitizing the people on matters of security and co-operation with security agencies. (iii) Community policing committees have been revived through the sub-county security and intelligence committees to enhance police and community partnership in combating crime. (iv) Mobile telephone numbers of security commanders have been circulated to members of the public for ease of reporting incidents and suspicious characters for quick action. (v) The national administration has embarked on sensitizing members of the public through barazas on the need to give information to security agents for action and to desist from acts of mob justice. (vi) Sustained proactive patrols. (vii) Special units have been put in place to enhance intelligence information collection. (viii) Four police divisions, Bungoma West, Bungoma Central, Kimilili and Bumula have been opened; OCPDs posted and are now fully operational. Three police patrol bases Tulumba, Buyofi and Mayanja have also been opened. (ix) Four vehicles have been availed to the police officers.
