Eugene Wamalwa, leader of the Democratic Action Party of Kenya (DAP-Kenya), has called for the cancellation of the police uniforms tender. During a church service in Kwale County and the opening of a new DAP-Kenya office in Kinondo, Wamalwa alleged that the expensive contract was intended to favor politically connected individuals.
He argued that the nation requires genuine police reforms, rather than new uniforms, and urged the government to focus on improving police officers' wages. The former Cabinet Secretary also criticized the government's heavy taxation of traders, condemning the use of tear gas on Nairobi traders protesting against the high taxes. Wamalwa further denounced violent attacks on Linda Mwananchi leaders James Orengo and Babu Owino in Migori, demanding that political parties and formations be permitted to campaign freely and peacefully throughout Kenya ahead of the 2027 General Election.
