The finalists of the third annual Kenya Outstanding Security Performance Awards (OSPAs) have been announced. The competition was particularly strong this year and the judges had the difficult task of reviewing and scoring entries from the many outstanding nominations.
Submissions were judged by an independent panel, who have expertise from across the security sector, they all signed up to an ethics policy, declaring any conflict of interest on every mark sheet.
Founder of the OSPAs Professor Martin Gill said: “We are delighted to have worked with Securexpo East Africa to bring the OSPAs to Kenya again this year. Since the inception of the awards 3-years ago, we have seen some excellent submissions, clearly demonstrating outstanding performance in all areas of security. Our thanks go to all those that have supported the awards and congratulations to the 2022 finalists.”
