 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.

 Canada deports 366 Nigerians, 974 others await removal


Canada has deported 366 Nigerian nationals between January and October 2025, while 974 others are currently awaiting removal, according to the official statistics from the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).


The data, drawn from the CBSA’s Removals Program and updated as of November 25, 2025, places Nigeria among the top countries with significant deportation figures. 


Those already deported have completed all required legal processes. Those on the “removal in progress” list have enforceable removal orders but are yet to be returned due to pending legal reviews or logistical arrangements. 


Historical records indicate that deportations of Nigerians from Canada have fluctuated in recent years.


In 2019, 339 Nigerians were deported, falling to 302 in 2020, 242 in 2021 and 199 in 2022. Nigeria did not appear among the top deported nationalities in 2023 and 2024 before returning to the list in 2025 with 366 removals. 


The increase in removals comes as Canadian authorities step up immigration enforcement, now removing nearly 400 foreign nationals each week, the highest weekly rate in more than a decade. In the 2024–2025 fiscal year alone, a total of about 18,000 people were deported from Canada. 


Under Canadian law, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA)  is required to remove any foreign national with an enforceable removal order.


People may be found inadmissible and subject to removal for reasons such as breach of immigration rules, criminality, security concerns, or misrepresentation. 


The intensified deportation efforts are part of measures to meet tighter immigration targets and address pressures on housing, labour markets, and border security.


Additional funds have been allocated to support removal operations and enhance border protection.
