 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.

 NBA Cracks Down on Fake Lawyers, Arrests Two in Delta


The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) intensified its efforts against fake legal practitioners on Monday, leading to the arrest of a suspected fake lawyer, Tega Ikupa, in Effurun, Delta State.


Ikupa was caught while preparing a Deed of Conveyance using the seal of a Sapele-based lawyer, Israel Onoge Esq. His sister-in-law, alleged to be an accomplice, was also arrested. Both suspects were taken into custody at the Ebrumede Police Station.


The arrest took place at the premises of Magistrate Court 1, Effurun, following the intervention of lawyers from the Warri, Effurun, and Udu branches of the NBA. Upon discovery of the forged seal, the lawyers contacted Onoge, who confirmed he had not authorized its use.


During interrogation, Ikupa admitted that the documents were provided by his sister-in-law, who later confessed that a surveyor in Adeje Community, Okpe, prepared them for ₦80,000. The police have since launched an investigation, with the Ebrumede Divisional Police Officer, CSP Iwok Ndifereke, ordering the arrest of the alleged surveyor.


This latest crackdown follows the recent arrest of two other fake lawyers in Ovwian, Udu Local Government Area.
