....what does comensation ental..rebuilding the slum????

Good question @McR. Plus, being Kenya, will this be another scandal a la IDP compensation cash etc?

Whenever you go to such like hospitals they normally ask whether you have a cover or not. As a slum dweller, unfortunately to them, it means alot different to being a 'resident of runda'. Aslum dweller to them is like a liability as they will have to write off the debt unless someone pays for them. That is not all, a friend of mine visited a hospital and payed cash for a common disease. on going back for the same on a 'cover' he realised the bill was three times te previous bill.

Tafakari.

Kenya Pipe line should accept full responsibility. I'm sure they have insured against such though I don't know if any insurer will pay as they knowingly discharged fuel into open drains and sewer lines.

And they should be telling the public what measures they are taking to prevent such spillage from leaving their plant untreated and flammable.

Was it overflow from their tanks or a blown jointing (Gasket) along the pipeline?....If it was an overflow,NEMA should be all over their sorry selfs for discharging pollutants to a live river.
