Police constables and Senior Assistant Inspector General are smiling home. 

The National Police Service Commission (NPSC) on Thursday, September 5 announced a salary review for police officers, raising the entry-level salary for constables from Sh21,645 to Sh25,645.

Constables with the longest service will now earn a gross salary ranging from Sh50,145 to Sh69,640, inclusive of all allowances, according to NPS Chairperson Eliud Kinuthia. 

He noted that the maximum salary of Sh69,640 applies to constables who have served for 20 years or more.

"Even without promotion, we provide annual incremental notches," Kinuthia added.
