Kenyan Police Officer Interacts with Haitian Journalists A Kenyan police officer, part of a contingent of National Police Service (NPS) officers deployed to Haiti for a peacekeeping mission, shared a moment of conviviality with Haitians.
The Kenyan police officer was filmed interacting with Haitian journalists outside the US Embassy in the Haitian capital, Port-au-Prince. The journalists asked him his opinion on Haitian girls.
After conducting a reverse search of the video, which has since gone viral, The Kenya Times discovered that it originated from Haitian media company Tande Koze, which uploaded it to YouTube.
The news organization released the video on July 5, 2024, with a caption in Haitian Creole that translates to “Kenyans have arrived at the US Embassy to secure this area, this is how it goes.”
In the video seen by The Kenya Times, the heavily armed policeman was seen answering questions from journalists who were filming him at the time.
The police officer was accompanied by other law enforcement officers who were patrolling and guarding the embassy.
Kenyan Police Officer Questioned About Haitian Girls He answered several questions, including about his experiences since arriving in the Caribbean country and the objectives of the mission.
In addition, the policeman shared a moment of conviviality with the journalists who asked him what he thought of the girls of the country and asked him to translate Swahili words.
However, the officer insisted he was not interested in the girls, saying his only focus and priority was the mission.
“Do you like Haitian girls?” a reporter asked, and the Kenyan policeman replied, “No, I’m not here for the girls, my friend. You’re missing the point.”
The reporters then asked him what “nakupenda” means in English, and the policeman politely replied, “I love you.”
Asked if he was afraid of fighting, he said he was not afraid of the gangs, but stressed that the contingent was there to keep the peace, not to fight.
“Are you ready to ensure the security of the Haitian people?” he was asked, and he replied, “Yes, we are ready. We are here to bring peace, of course, not to fight.”
The police officer was also asked about his general impressions of the country, and he replied that it was not bad.
However, when asked to elaborate further on the mission, he avoided the question and replied, “No comment.”
Kenyan Police Guard US Embassy in Haiti The interaction comes at a time when Kenyans are questioning the deployment of police officers in the crisis-hit Caribbean country after they were photographed guarding the US embassy.
Photos published by the Associated Press (AP) showed armed Kenyan police outside the U.S. Embassy in Port-au-Prince.
A section of Kenyans online, while questioning the role of the police in the Caribbean country, pointed out that there was no justification for the police to protect a US-owned facility.
The first contingent of 400 Kenyan police officers arrived in the Haitian capital on Tuesday, June 25, after a delayed deployment.
Kenya has volunteered to lead an international force to combat gang violence in the Caribbean country where gangs control much of the capital, Port-au-Prince.
The deployment was authorised by President William Ruto following approval by the United Nations Security Council in October 2023.
