Kenyan police leaders arrive in Haiti ahead of planned deployment

A delegation of Kenyan officials arrived in Haiti on Monday afternoon as part of an assessment team to inspect their constructed base and airport.

The delegation, which landed onboard a Sunrise Airways flight is expected to be in Haiti through the week and has several meetings planned including with the United Nations Integrated Office in Port-au-Prince, officials said.

Deputy Inspector General of Administration Police Noor Gabow is leading the delegation that visited Port au Prince last year for planning and reconnaissance.

Gabow will serve as the Force Commander of the Multinational Security Support Mission and has already arrived in the gang violence-hit Caribbean country.
