Nairobi residents urged to remove illegally erected structures

Kindly read and share to support us reach our target audiences.

The County Government has commenced the demolition of illegal structures built on drainage systems, waterways, riparian land, and all developments contributing to flooding within Nairobi.

All residents are required to immediately and voluntarily remove any structures erected on drainage lines, blocked waterways, riverbanks, and riparian reserves.

Encroachment on these critical areas has severely compromised the city’s drainage capacity, directly contributing to flooding and placing millions of lives at risk. This is a grave and unacceptable violation that will not be tolerated.

Any structure found obstructing drainage systems or built on protected areas will be demolished without further notice or negotiation. Enforcement operations will continue and intensify until all illegal developments are cleared and order is fully restored.

These measures are necessary to protect lives, prevent destruction of property, and ensure the safety and sustainability of our city. Public safety will take absolute priority over all other considerations.
