Masukuma please tell me where someone who's paid 10k per month is supposed to live. After all its he's responsibility. We have indians setting up factories that earn billions of shillings but these fellows pay their "employees" 300 per day. Where is this labor supposed to live? Nation newspapers even rewards these slave dealers with top 100 by 100 or something awards. Then we have a labor movement who's leader is only interested in the latest gold chain. Then the "entreprenuer" who bribes city and government officials to build death traps. The motto is "if you build shit, the assholes shall come". We even have a thread on wazua on how you can build shit and charge the slaves all their wages....It's called property investments forum. This Huruma thing is just what Kenya is. Ohh people died. Let's jail a few fellows for 2 weeks. Ohh lets bring down 5 houses and use selfies in Huruma. Nope that's not the problem. The problem is that public land has been grabbed. Private developers are building on road reserves and waterways and bribing government officials to do so. Why isn't Kidero today at Nakumatt with a bulldozer. I remember they beat the hell out of Wangari Maathai when she complained. The same cop who beat her up, probably has a relative who died in Huruma. I think God has had enough of Kenyans. There shall be more to come. By the way like seriously, what happened to that architect who used to tell us that stealing public land is good for the economy? Thieves are not good people. Tumeelewana?

It makes no point to demolish buildings in a country having issues with making financial ends meet. @A4 Even when someone has built on your land without your consent?  @xsk, if its built on land belonging to an individual, then demolition is a solution. If its built on land belonging to Govt, then demolition is not a solution. Ministry of lands/agric appropriated the land from govt to individuals hence what is required are more detailed laws on how idle govt lands should transfer to the public within the confines of law. In other developed countries, they check all idle underutilized govt lands then use well crafted laws to resell the same to the public for development. http://www.parliament.uk...nd%20Reform%20Paper.pdf Its true in some sense but the role of gov in developed countries is to lease zoned pieces of land but the approval of buildings or any development is passed by the council and the public living in that city participate by voting for or against those developments.

Mkenyan its called thinking that everyone in life has the same experiences and outcomes. Which for a programmer is a strange thought. Masukuma there are people who are poorer than you. Just to stop you going into the normal stories about how poor you started, please also understand that there are people who started much much poorer than what you think is poor. You have yet to explain how a company in the NSE still keeps people in their payroll who earn 300 bob a day. Even has industrialist of the year awards. This is slavery and they know it. But shall call it capitalism. Last time I checked, the first world countries pay their slaves more. Ati kila mtu alijileta nairobi. As if the ones left behind are any better. Being poor does not equate to a tenderprenuer building death holes to buy mbuzis for wazuans. That's evil. Plain evil. Thieves are not good people. Tumeelewana?

just saying! ukishindwa na maisha nairobi panda basi uelekee shags ukikataa hiyo - utapandishwa basi tu... only that utakuwa kama mzigo! people should stop giving excuses and start living. but what do I know.... give all the excuses you want... live in those leaning towers of riverside.... risk the lives of your children.... all because KIDERO IS TO BLAME! right? how can we sort this out? let's live in these houses until 2017... kick out kidero and in the crapshoot we call elections pick some other rich dude/dudette then roll the dice again... see if he/she works for us. Let's delegate our responsibilities to marking on a check box with a complementary pen. I am not urging group thinking... I am just urging individual thinking.... wenye wanangoja things to happen for groups - good for you! but what do i know right? All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!

And I'm certain that few if any of the poor are waiting for Kidero to help them. So you don't have to urge anyone to do anything. But you can desensitize yourself from the plight of others and avoid seeing the weakness of your convictions thus.

Shida at the coast: http://www.the-star.co.k...y-construction_c1346842
Quote:A section covering five floors of Mombasa's Nyali Centre collapsed on Monday morning due to what residents said was poor construction.
No injuries were reported but police cordoned off the area amid an evacuation exercise. Business owners were not allowed into the building.
County Urban planning executive Francis Thoya said sections of the premises, including Java House, the Boxing Lounge and several banks, were closed.
Officials will inspect the building before making recommendations, he said, adding the authorities were searching for the engineers and contractors who did a "shoddy job".

These banks and businesses setting up shop in this nyali building have only themselves to blame. Do they see joho's business there? Ni joho anaishi hapo? These banks and other establishments should just go back to shags ama zitapelekwa na sanduku! Au sio @magreens?

Wish the people will learn a lesson, the story has been pushed to the back, no one will console with them at the funerals, no body will come to view the dead, the families will foot the bills, the fundraisers if any will be low key affairs, then the sad thing is that the same people will wake up early join long lines just to vote in the same leadership that is now singing praises to their fallen cronies who have looted public coffers.

Some guy said the owners are putting paint on the NCCK 'X' and then put a company advert, wondered how people can be so cunning.
