There are reported cases of bribery for one to join the police in Kenya but these are things common citizens don’t know. From reliable sources, you will need Ksh 200,000 to Ksh400,000 bribe to join the police. But before being recruited, you must meet most of the basic requirements.
All you need is to know someone who knows those recruiting. Then the money will move up the chain. But in most cases, there are brokers who aren’t even working as police officers. These are the ones who receive money from those joining.
Every recruitment, there are several reported cases of people who get scammed. Someone comes to you with the idea of paying a bribe.That person would pretend to be knowing senior police officers. They will even connect a call such that you can call and be satisfied that they know the ‘’big people’’. When you pay the money,they disappear.And as you know,if you have lost money which you were bribing someone,there is no way you can report that matter to the police.
When seeking recruitment,be careful who to approach because there are many scammers.
