| [AFRICANEWS] Kenyan police sent to check if they were ready to help stop violence in Haiti are coming back home. They said it's not the right time to go yet. They'll be back on Monday. A senior Kenyan official who declined to be named as they are not the official spokesperson said the bases are still under construction and crucial resources including vehicles are needed before deployment of the first 200 coppers from Kenya can take place. The deployment was due to start this week, but President William Ruto said it would be delayed for three weeks. The base where the police will operate from is about 70% done and there is a need for secure stores for the armory, according to the bigwig, who was in the advance team. The officials arrived in Haiti on Tuesday, met the Haitian police on Thursday and the transitional presidential council on Friday. |

Coming along a bit faster than Atlanta's new 'COP City' training area. Similar community pushback it would appear. I continue to search or a common denominator. |
