A police recruitment exercise at Kabarnet Showground in Baringo Central momentarily came to a standstill after a young man loudly protested being disqualified for not meeting the required height, accusing the recruitment team of discrimination.

Idris Kiprop, a National Youth Service (NYS) graduate, caused drama right at the height measurement point, interrupting the exercise as officers tried to calm him down.
