About the Association

A body corporate for Kenya's investigation profession.

The National Association of Kenya Investigators is mandated under its constitution to coordinate the professional conduct of practitioners duly registered and licensed to render investigation services in Kenya.

As a professional body, NAKI promotes professional development, education, and ethical guidelines for its members. It sets standards, protects client interests, and enforces professional discipline across the membership.

Working in partnership with industry stakeholders and government institutions, the Association creates public awareness of licensed investigation practice and promotes professional recognition for its members - a mandate captured in the Association's own working principle: absence of evidence is not evidence of absence - every lead counts.
