Item Adoption of a Multi-Agency Approach in Securing Kenya’s International Borders(International Academic Journal of Arts and Humanities (IAJAH), 2022-09) Kirimi, Joel Mugambi; Kinyanjui, F. K.; Ngari, L.Kenya international boundaries are generally porous in nature and have their fair share of challenges and disputes. Kenya recognizes the centrality of international boundaries in securing her sovereignty and has deployed different security agencies for this purpose. The purpose of the study was to assess the effectiveness of the multiagency approach in international boundary security in Kenya. A descriptive study was applied targeting officers from multi agencies that deal with securing Kenya’s international boundaries. Stratified and census sampling were employed. Primary data was collected using key informant interviews and a survey questionnaire and analyzed using content analysis and descriptive analysis respectively. The findings indicate that the multiagency approach was effective in promoting coordination, training and support among the security agencies in the efforts of securing the international boundaries. The study recommends that the government enhances the initiatives of multiagency approach undertaken by different security agencies with the aim of securing Kenya’s international boundaries. The study suggests that further studies be conducted focusing on the challenges faced using the multi-agency approach in securing the international borders.
