The National Police Service (NPS) has officially flagged and dismissed as fake a viral document circulating on social media that claimed to list new appointments and transfers for more than 30 Officers Commanding Stations (OCSs) across Nairobi.
- Tunachokijua
- Official Status of the List
Fake Document: The widely shared list titled "Re: Appointment of Nairobi OCSs" is not authentic.
No Official Deployment: The National Police Service stamped the viral document with a red "FAKE" notice on its official channels, warning the public against treating the names as real.
Stations Mentioned in Hoax: The false list falsely claimed changes for major stations including Central, Kilimani, Kasarani, Buruburu, Embakasi, Lang'ata, Kayole, and Pangani.
Where to Find Verified Information
Official Channels: Any legitimate changes or redeployments of police commanders are published directly through the National Police Service Official X Account or mainstream media statements.
Caution: Members of the public are advised to ignore unverified social media postings regarding internal police reshuffles.
