Ruto’s visit to Haiti comes months after he flagged police officers who were deployed in the foreign country to deal with gang violence.

While Ruto’s itinerary in Haiti remains scanty, it is expected that he will meet up with officials who are leading the Multinational Security Support (MSS) mission.

Haiti’s MSS mission is being led by Senior Assistant Inspector General of Police, Godfrey Otunge.

The mission was necessitated by the rise of gang violence which also caused political instability in Haiti.

Since their deployment in June, the mission being led by Kenyan officers has recovered various national assets that were in the control of the gangs such as hospitals.

“The MSS team in Haiti and the Haiti National Police (HNP) have scaled up joint operations aimed at bringing normalcy in gang-controlled areas that include Port Au Prince Downtown, Ganthier, and Delmas, among other areas,” the National Police Service (NPS) gave an update on the mission.

“These joint patrols and operations have led to several arrests of gang members and a return to normalcy in the once gang-ridden areas.”
