The post has been found to be fake. The official accounts for police force are verified.
However, according to the constitution Section 101 (1) (a) & (b) of the National Police Service Act Cap 84 laws of Kenya prohibits the use of Police uniform by civil and any thing that resembles a police uniform.
Although 101 (2) gives room for one to seek approval from the IG to use the same for artistic purpose.
The same applies to Section 279 of the KDF Act in relation to any service uniform although the KDF Act does not give room for permission even in artistic purposes.
The KDF Act however does not outlaw use of brooches or Ornaments.
