Reminds me of a skit on Tiktok recently where a man called a police station asking wamugawie wateja.

This is different, when a developing a medium to large estate, council rules state that you cede part of the development towards a social / public amenity, think school, dispensary, police station..... whose size is a ratio of the development.(Remember the Wamatangi - Tatu city story). For a small development a police post is the easiest to do and of course its a good story pitch for your salesmen. You build in full knowledge of vigilance house but when it comes time for staffing, crickets. Thats how you end up with a police post fully branded but not staffed inside your estate development.

That’s an interesting perspective. It makes sense that developers would include a police post as part of their project to attract buyers and fulfill council requirements, but it’s frustrating when the authorities don’t follow through with staffing. It leaves a security gap and raises questions about accountability. Do you think there should be stricter enforcement on ensuring these facilities actually become operational?
