 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.

 Kenyan President Cancels First Lady’s Office Budget, Official Trips Amid Protests 

President William Ruto of Kenya has announced key austerity measures aimed at addressing public discontent and cutting government expenditure amid protests in the East African country.


Budgets allocated to the offices of the First Lady and Second Lady have been eliminated, while a ban was also placed on the purchase of new cars for government use.


President Ruto further dissolved 47 state agencies and suspended all non-essential travel for government workers.


The president also announced that the number of his advisers has been reduced by 50%.


The decisions come after three weeks of anti-government protests, which have seen citizens demand greater transparency, accountability, and better governance.


President Ruto’s actions are seen as a step towards addressing these concerns and demonstrating fiscal responsibility.
