Why hasn't the owner & contractor of the Kiambu building been arrested?
* Apparently the mortar used was sub-standard
Why hasn't the owner & contractor of the next door plot been arrested?
* The Kiambu Engineer claims the excavation was unlicensed

I am sure these people have POLITICAL GODFATHERS...

This is kenya. If iteeri arrived 2 hours later,when do you expect the 'governmement' to step in..

A likely impossibility is always preferable to an unconvincing posibility.

As we complain about police arriving late at the scene and lack of equipment,we should first ask ourselves why this is happening in the first place. Why have WE KIKUYUs become so greedy. If you look at most of the collapsing buildings,those involved are all kikuyus. Why are Kikuyus killing each other? Our greed has taken us here. We should not feel bad when other people call us thieves because that is who we are. Damn thieves who will sell their mothers for a dime.

The building owner might not be at fault. His neighbour might be. The construction in Kilimani was being inspected by a well qualified engineer. Yet a simple oversight on the foundation conditions can cause such. Lack of knowledge.

I expect in 10 years time Kenya will have a serious crisis when it comes to professionals. Pray that you do not even become sick. Look at our city roads engineer and the recent replanning of roads within the city. Do you notice something odd?

@funali - What's wrong/odd with our roads?
