 Kenyan building collapse near Nairobi kills six people The collapse of an unfinished eight-storey building in Kenya has killed six people. The structure fell on Friday morning in Syokimau on the outskirts of Nairobi. Construction workers were reportedly at the site when the building’s uppermost concrete slab gave way, bringing down part of the structure, according to a preliminary report from Nairobi City County’s emergency team. The report did not establish why the slab failed. The Kenya Red Cross initially reported that three people had been rescued and one person was reported missing. TV reports later said that five people had been pulled alive from the rubble and taken to hospital. The emergency report said the number of workers present when the building fell had not been confirmed, leaving open the possibility that others were trapped. Firefighters and specialist rescue teams were continuing to search for survivors.

    According to Channels TV, ''The political crisis in the Benue State House of Assembly assumed another dimension on Friday when the Nigerian police barred the 22 lawmakers who impeached Mr Terkimbi Ikyange as Speaker of the Assembly from gaining access to the legislative chamber for plenary.

As early as 8 am, police vehicles had blocked the main entrance of the state House of Assembly
The lawmakers then attempted to enter the chamber through another gate behind the assembly complex, but they met another police blockade there.
This led to a heated exchange with a Deputy Commissioner of Police, Tajudeen Bakare, who led the operation.
Bakare told the lawmakers that the information available to him indicated that there would be a breakdown of law and order.
However, the lawmakers insisted they would sit anywhere in the state as allowed by the Constitution since the police had taken over the assembly.
Mr Ikyange had rejected his impeachment declaring the process illegal and believes the lawmakers are bent on destroying the legislature.
However, the lawmakers told journalists that the impeachment process met all the constitutional requirements.
They vowed to carry on with the planned sitting in any part of the state, and eventually, moved to the Government House for plenary''.More photos below.
