Kenyan Police Officers sent to Haiti face pay delays


Two months after Kenyan police officers landed in Haiti, they are yet to receive their deployment allowances.

The Nation, a leading Kenyan newspaper reported that families of the officers were unable to take their children to school due to lack of pay by the United Nations which approved the deployment to Haiti.

About 400 Kenyan officers landed in the Carribean nation for a multinational mission aimed at supportting the Haitian Police in its fights against gangs.

The UN supports but does not manage the MSS Mission. It established a trust fund which is facilitated voluntarily from donor countries.

Main contributors are Canada, France and the United States of America.

Last September, the US pledged $100 million to the mission.
