 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.

 Guardiola accepts blame for Man City poor form


Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola says he blames himself for the club's awful run of form. City, who have won the Premier League title for the past four years and in six of the past seven, are 14 points behind leaders Liverpool. A 2-0 win at Leicester on Sunday was only their second victory in 14 matches.


It is the worst run of a hugely successful managerial career taking in spells at Barcelona and Bayern Munich. "There are many, many things [involved in being a manager] and I missed something - something I am not doing well," said Guardiola, who has been at the club for nine seasons. "In the end, when you lose a lot of games it is an incredible responsibility for the manager to take. There is something the team needs and confidence and I was not able to do it.


"The call is on me first, it's not the players. They naturally drop a little bit and that is normal. It happened a little bit last season as well." City have had slow starts to seasons before - and trailed the leaders by six points or more in each of the past four title-winning campaigns - but they have never been this bad. "With this consistency [of results] I should have found it, and that is why we're in this position," Guardiola said. "I blame [myself]. It's not to say, 'oh how nice is Pep' - it's the truth. I lead that group of players and I could not lift them. This is the reality."


City have suffered many injuries this season - including to Ballon d'Or-winning midfielder Rodri - which Guardiola has repeatedly highlighted. "We were the only unbeaten team in Europe [until 30 October] and top of the league, but immediately we went down, for injuries, many things we've talked about," he said.
