His name is Adamson Bungei. He is the Chief Police Officer of Nairobi county. He previously serving as the Baringo Country Police Commander. He pursued his education at various institutions in the country, including the Kenya Police College, where he graduated with a diploma in police science. He later went on to study at the University of Nairobi, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Criminology and Criminal Justice.
Bungei joined the police force in 1997 as a constable and worked his way up the ranks, serving in various capacities within the police force. He has served as a police officer in several counties in Kenya, including Nairobi, Kisumu, and Nakuru. He was also the District Criminal Investigations Officer (DCIO) for Thika.
On his position in Nairobi, the police boss has issued a warning to Azimio leaders who plan to engage in mass demonstrations tommorow. Bungei stated that although the Azimio team had given notice to the police beforehand, the right to assemble is not absolute under the Constitution. Bungei has declined to allow the Azimio team to proceed with their demonstration saying, any such demonstrations will be dispensed by law enforcement officers.
He observed that previous Azimio protests were marred by violence, with protestors armed with machetes attacking innocent members of the public and destroying property, resulting in the death of several Kenyans. Despite the warnings, Azimio leader Raila Odinga has maintained the coalition would resume protests after what he said was the government’s failure to take the bi-partisan talks seriously. This is the man giving Azimio sleepless nights as it plans for demonstrations.
