 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.

A 22-year-old scholar transport driver, Ayanda Dludla, appeared before the Vanderbijlpark Magistrates’ Court, where he abandoned his bail application.


Dludla is facing 14 counts of murder, three counts of attempted murder, and additional charges of operating a motor vehicle without a certificate of fitness, driving without a professional driving permit, and operating an unlicensed motor vehicle.


It is alleged that on 19 January 2026, Dludla was driving a scholar transport vehicle along the R553 Golden Highway while transporting 16 learners when the vehicle collided head-on with an oncoming truck. Fourteen learners died as a result of the crash, while two learners and the truck driver sustained injuries.


During his court appearance, the accused chose not to apply for bail. The case was postponed to 05 March 2026 for further investigations.
