Dedan Kimathi University of Technology has taken a significant step in strengthening collaboration with the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) through the formalization of a strategic research partnership.

Led by the Vice-Chancellor Prof. Eng. Peter N. Muchiri, EBS, the DeKUT delegation attended a meeting hosted by IPOA Chairperson Ahmed Issack Hassan, alongside members of the IPOA Board and Management.
