The ongoing demolition by the government in flood prone areas has claimed the lives of two individuals in Mukuru Kwa Reuben. A 24 year old man and a 9 year old, were inside the house when the demolition exercise was ongoing on Saturday. Irate residents who caused a melee lamented the loss attributing it to the forced demolition before adequate relocation arrangements were made. Makadara Sub-County Police Commander Judy Nyongesa refuted the claims, asserting that the victims, perished while the residents were attempting to dismantle their houses.
