Police reservists to get medical cover as 705 graduate in Meru

The government is moving to provide medical cover for National Police Service Reservists (NPRs) and improve their terms of service as part of efforts to address welfare concerns among officers. Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja said the process of onboarding reservists onto a medical cover scheme was underway, while salary processing procedures had been automated. Kanja spoke on Wednesday during the graduation of 705 NPRs at the Magado Field Training Camp in Igembe North, Meru County. "With the support from the government and our parent ministry, we will continue to work towards improving working and living conditions for all the National Police Service officers," Kanja said. He added that the National Police Service was taking steps to improve the terms of service for reservists.
