The winners of the 2024 Kenya Outstanding Security Performance Awards (OSPAs) were announced at a presentation held at Securexpo East Africa on 16th October 2024.

These awards recognize the very best companies, individuals, projects, and technologies that have made significant contributions to safeguarding people, places, and property from various threats and disorders.

The quality of nominations was exceptionally high, making the selection process particularly challenging for the judges on the panel. All finalists and winners demonstrated excellence and should feel extremely proud of their achievements.

The 2024 winners are:

Outstanding In-House Security Manager/Director
Edward Achola – Base Titanium

Outstanding Contract Security Manager/Director
Peter Kinyanjui – SGA Security

Outstanding New Security Product
Askari Workforce Management – Askari Technologies

Outstanding Security Officer
Elizabeth Baruka Samba – SGA Security

Outstanding Female Security Professional
Annette Kimitei – Senaca East Africa

Outstanding Young Security Professional
Favor Gakii – Secured Insights

Lifetime Achievement
James Dutkowski

An exciting new development for this year’s awards is that winners, except Lifetime Achievement, will go forward for the Global OSPAs – set to take place at the beginning of 2025, and the Lifetime Achievement winner will be inducted into the Security Hall of Fame.

The event organisers would like to thank all those that helped make the event a success; Securexpo for partnering with us, and the supporting organisations who nominated judges to represent them.
