Very unfair to demolish the muhindi hotel while the Warwick centre (and apartments) next door is left standing....why the double standards?

So the residents are happy with some of the commercial buildings (eg warwick) in their area and not others?

In August this year, Citizen TV established that the Gigiri Village Association had filed a complaint in July 2015, lamenting that the putting up of a commercial structure in the area violated physical planning regulations for the low-density estate.

Residents argued that the area should be limited to low residential, one-family houses as it had no facilities to support the hotel.

In December 2016, the county government demanded proof of public participation of the residents and the embassies threatening to cancel the approval.

Sometimes its hard to believe some things. But also we do take things to our hands a lot. This guy had opposition to the building since he started always going to court for reprieve. The same court allowed the demolition. Basically the one who "ATE" approved, and the one who did not "EAT" demolished

When M01 used to preside over UoN graduations every hall of residence and building with a view to the graduation square would be cleared by the security police.

I hear that initially Sonko had wanted the top 2 floors demolished (for UN/US Embassy security) but owner was stubborn

So if I feel that my neighbour is a "security threat" to me I can call SANY to demolish his house? Also why are embassies being located in residential areas? Zoning laws say those residential areas should have only 1 family home and an SQ, not offices.

Right from the construction, this man was warned but he greased City-hall hands back then and thought he would continue doing so. Too bad.
