NPS denies Nalitex link to new police uniform tender

The National Police Service (NPS) has dismissed reports linking Nalitex Limited to the procurement and manufacture of the new Kenya Police Service General Duty uniform, insisting the company played no role in the process.“The NPS is particularly concerned that the media reports have introduced an entity referred to as Nalitex Limited into the procurement and manufacture of the new police uniform, yet the said entity does not feature anywhere in the NPS process relating to its development, selection, procurement or manufacture,” the Service said in a statement issued on Sunday.

The police said the decision to change the General Duty uniform was made as part of broader police reforms and preceded the procurement process.
