KISUMU – The newly posted Nyanza Provincial Police Boss (PPO) Mr. Antony Kibuchi has pledged to work hand in hand with the local political leaders and other stake holders to ensure that the security in the province is restored back to normal.
  
  Speaking to this journalist in his office the no nonsense Kibuchi said that he has even called for a forum with the leaders in Tom Mboya Labour College (COTU) this weekend to appeal to them to co-operate in order to ensure security of the people is not compromised by a few disgruntled hooligans who have been extorting and harassing locals under the pretext of political protests.
  
  On the recent skirmishes in Burabi District where several houses have been torched and dozens killed, the PPO vowed to ensure that calm is immediately restored.” I’ve Mobilized all the security agents including the general services unit (GSU) and the administration police (APS) to co-ordinate the exercise” he gloated.
  
  He also took issue with heartless bunch of idlers and inciters who have been torching people’s private properties with glee saying their days are numbered. Kibuchi took over last month from Mrs. Grace Kaindi who was transferred to the complaints desk at the Police headquarters
