Kenya, June 29, 2026 - Two illegal firearms and ammunition have been voluntarily surrendered by members of the public in Angata Barrikoi, Narok County, in a development the National Police Service (NPS) says underscores the success of ongoing multi-agency security operations in the area.
According to the NPS, the weapons were handed over yesterday to a multi-agency security team conducting operations aimed at restoring peace, improving public safety and removing illegal firearms from communities.
The police said the voluntary surrender reflects growing cooperation between security agencies and local residents in efforts to combat crime and enhance security in Narok County.
The recovered firearms are expected to significantly reduce the threat posed by illegal weapons, prevent their possible use in criminal activities and create a safer environment for residents to carry out their daily socio-economic activities without fear.

The service reaffirmed its commitment to sustaining multi-agency security operations, strengthening collaboration with partner agencies and engaging communities to ensure lasting peace and security through partnership, trust and shared responsibility.
