Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya has demanded a formal explanation from the Inspector-General of the National Police Service over the repeated withdrawal of his security detail, citing constitutional provisions on administrative fairness and the rule of law.
In a statement, Natembeya said any decision affecting his personal security must comply with the Constitution and applicable laws, insisting that public authorities must provide clear reasons for decisions that adversely affect an individual’s rights.
The governor cited Article 47 of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, which guarantees every person the right to administrative action that is lawful, reasonable and procedurally fair, including written reasons where a right or fundamental freedom has been adversely affected.
