Nairobi County Government is seeking assistance from the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) in the demolition of condemned building.

“We want KDF to step in and assist with their machines and equipment as the work ahead is enormous,”said Lands County Executive Committee member Christopher Khaemba.

The appeal follows the collapse of a five-storey building in Kariobangi South yesterday where police attached to Buru Buru Police station forcibly evacuated tenants less than 12 hours before it collapsed.

No injuries were reported in the morning incident. Khaemba said demolition of some 384 condemned buildings had been halted after National Youth Service (NYS) evacuators broke down.
