Kenyan Man Denied Police Job After Failing To Close An Eye

• After several false starts, the police recruitment process has finally begun in earnest in Kenya and while some people have gone home happy because they were able to continue, others have not
• Among those waiting to be hired was a man who could not close one of his eyes. He found himself in a bad situation and was eventually sent home
• He complained bitterly about what had happened, and others who did not deserve it for various reasons, but there was nothing they could do about it

A Kenyan man is desperate after being denied a chance to join the police forces because he could not close his eyes.

The exercise of recruiting new police officers has faced several challenges and at first it could not start and finally when it started, people came in large numbers to participate.

“The only reason I got fired was because of my eye twitching, and I even wondered what was wrong. They kept saying it was wrong no matter how I tried to explain it,” he said.

“Why can’t they focus on other things so that those who can’t meet these requirements can still qualify? A lot of people are out there, but they’re being released on very minor issues, and the government should look at that,” he added.

How did the NPS choose those who applied for police work?

According to the police who were in charge of the recruitment campaign, the young people eagerly reported on time, and the exercise was successful.

“We intend to hire 16 people. We evaluate several areas, starting from age, academic qualifications, and physical and medical evaluations. From the National Youth Service (NYS), we hire less than 10 people, and the age is between 18 and 28 years,” they said.

How did Kenyans react to the eye story?

Godfrey Mutai:

“Let them blame the orbicularis oculi muscle and facial nerve dysfunction.”

Jeremiah Kianga

My chest has feathers or feathers, the sub-county commander, the Administrative Police wing told me they employ humans, not monkeys. The girl is not brave enough. I thought I was made in the image of God.”

Samuel Okong’o Choi:

“Brother, you can’t be a police officer if you can’t close one eye because you can’t aim a gun.’

Julius Marereh:

“It won’t be a police officer to do range work very well. On the battlefield you have to close one eye for the best aim.”

Why were women not allowed to participate in the police job search exercise?

Another news revealed how women who missed the police job search exercise were asked to prepare for future opportunities.

The NPS conducted a one-day exercise targeting 10,000 police officers in 427 stations across the country.

The exercise came after the decision of the High Court to lift the suspension order of the previous exercise and marked one of the biggest drag exercises in Kenya.
