The National Police Service Commission (NPSC) has issued an addendum correcting and clarifying recruitment centres for the ongoing exercise to enlist police constables into the National Police Service.
The clarification follows the initial advertisement published on September 19 and 20, 2025, in local dailies.

In a public notice released on Tuesday, September 30, 2025, the commission confirmed that some centres had been inadvertently omitted from the original advertisement, while others were wrongly listed.
“The National Police Service Commission wishes to inform the public of the following clarifications, additions, and corrections to the designated recruitment centres,” the notice reads.
The commission emphasised that all other details of the recruitment remain unchanged and warned applicants to take note of the corrections.
Newly added centres
According to the addendum, several centres have now been included. These include Nuu TVET Grounds in Kitui, Sabuli in Wajir, Zombe Stadium in Kitui, and Kokane in Tana River, all scheduled for Tuesday, October 7, 2025.

Corrected centres
The commission also rectified errors in previously advertised venues. For example, on October 3, 2025, the Kilifi North recruitment will be held at Karisa Maitha Stadium, not the earlier listed venue.
In Nairobi, the Embakasi Central exercise will be conducted at Humama Grounds, while Embakasi South will now use Dandora Stadium.
On October 6, 2025, Bungoma West candidates should report to Sirisia Sports Grounds instead of the earlier venue. Other corrected centres include Sena Airstrip in Homa Bay Suba West, Kirangari Vocational Training Center in Kiambu Kabete, Banda La Salama in Kilifi Chonyi, Chuluni DCC’s Office in Kitui Nzambani, Kasarani Grounds in Kwale Samburu, and Chuka DCC Grounds in Tharaka Nithi.

For example, recruitment will be conducted on October 7, 2025, at Onunga Stadium in Homa Bay, Alliance High School in Kiambu Kikuyu, Kaloleni Grounds in Kilifi, Lunga Lunga Secondary in Kwale, Chepkigen in Ziwa, Soy Uasin Gishu, and Ganze Primary School in Kilifi.
On October 8, 2025, other centres include Igamaba Ng’ombe DCC Grounds, Old Municipal Stadium in Kitui, and Mwiru Play Ground in Kiambu Githurai. On October 9, 2025, Webuye East candidates will assemble at Pan Paper Grounds in Bungoma.
Application for police recruitment
The NPSC has also urged National Youth Service (NYS) graduates who meet the minimum qualifications to participate in the recruitment. However, it clarified that they will be enlisted in their respective counties.
“NYS graduates who meet the minimum entry requirements are encouraged to apply. However, it is clarified that NYS graduates will be recruited at their respective Counties,” the notice stated.
Interested candidates are also advised to download and print the application form from the official website before presenting themselves at the recruitment centres.
The Chief Executive Officer, Peter Leley, who signed the notice, urged Kenyans to rely only on the NPSC’s official communication channels.
“All other information contained in the earlier advertisement remains unchanged. Interested applicants are advised to take note of the above changes when responding,” he said.
