 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.

 *One-way Driving: ARTMA Advices Drivers To Strictly Adhere To Traffic Rules*

Anambra State Road Traffic Management Agency (ARTMA) has advised drivers to adhere strictly to designated routes to avoid endangering lives.


The agency, in an ARTMA Report of Sunday, 30th June, 2024, titled, 'Notice to All Road Users and Drivers in Anambra State,' frowned at the activities of road users who drive against traffic (one-way), adding that it has deployed a special team to curb the trend.


"Driving against traffic (one-way) is tantamount to endangering lives. The risks involved can not be overstated.


"The agency has observed a disturbing trend, particularly in Onitsha, where drivers, including heavy-duty trucks, disregard traffic rules after 6 pm. This irresponsible behaviour has resulted in numerous accidents and fatalities.


"ARTMA officers are tirelessly working around the clock to maintain smooth traffic flow, thereby eliminating the need for such hazardous actions.


"Drivers are strongly advised to adhere strictly to designated routes at all times. ARTMA has deployed a specialized team dedicated to curbing this life-threatening recklessness from 6 pm onwards," the report reads.
