The announcement follows the lifting of a High Court suspension that had briefly stalled the process.
In a statement released on Friday, November 14, Kanja confirmed that recruitment will run from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., with a target of enrolling 10,000 new constables into the National Police Service.
“On October 31, 2025, the National Police Service placed an advertisement in leading newspapers announcing the recruitment of 10,000 qualified youths to serve as police constables. The recruitment will proceed on Monday as scheduled,” the IG said.
The recruitment had been temporarily halted by the High Court following a petition by activist Eliud Matindi. Matindi challenged the IG’s authority to conduct the recruitment independently.
