Back In January, a 16-storey building in South C, Nairobi collapsed, killing two people who were trapped under debris.
Five months later, there is still no publicly released investigation report, no prosecutions, and no clear accountability.
Although the Lands CS Hon. Alice Wahome had promised decisive action, residents say even a nearby building previously flagged for structural concerns remains standing and is reportedly still under construction and being sold to buyers.
This is the most painful part of Kenyan tragedies: not just the deaths themselves, but how quickly the nation abandons those left behind, leaving grieving families to struggle alone while attention shifts elsewhere.
The situation has fueled public frustration over alleged regulatory failure and lack of justice following the tragedy.
