This comes days after the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) expanded its biometric Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) processing services to two more Huduma Centres in Turkana and West Pokot, allowing residents to obtain the document in less than five minutes.
In a statement on Thursday, November 12, 2026, the Directorate announced that it had installed the Multi-Biometric Identification System (MBIS) at Lodwar Huduma Centre in Turkana County and Kapenguria Huduma Centre in West Pokot County.
DCI said the expansion was part of efforts to make government services more accessible to Kenyans by reducing the distance residents travel to access police clearance services.
